Extensive Arch Repair with a Novel Two-Branched Stent Graft in Acute Type A Aortic Dissection.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

In this study, we compared the early results between the extensive arch repair with a novel two-branched stent graft (TSG) and the traditional technique.

Methods

Between 2013 July and 2015 March, 63 acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) patients from four cardiac centers with indications for extensive arch repair were included in this study. Finally, 28 patients were involved in the traditional procedure (TP) group (23 males with the age of 49.75 ± 9.26 years) and 35 patients were involved in the TSG group (29 males with the age of 53.82 ± 8.17 years).

Results

The operation was successful in all patients. The selective cerebral perfusion time, total operation time, and chest drainage within 24 hours after the operation in the TSG group were significantly less
