Surgical treatment strategies for patients with type A aortic dissection involving arch anomalies

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The aim of the study was to investigate surgical modalities and outcomes in patients with type A aortic dissection involving arch anomalies.

Method

Patients with type A aortic dissection who underwent surgical treatment at our center between January 2017 and 31 December 2020 were selected for this retrospective analysis. Data including computed tomography (CT), surgical records, and cardiopulmonary bypass records were analyzed. Perioperatively survived patients were followed up, and long-term mortality and aortic re-interventions were recorded.

Result

A total of 81 patients with arch anomalies were included, 35 with “bovine” anomalies, 23 with an aberrant right subclavian artery, 22 with an isolated left vertebral artery, and one with a right-sided arch
