Abstract Background Acute coronary artery involvement (ACI) is a lethal complication of acute type A aortic dissection. Although ACI has been reported as one of the prognostic factors of acute type A aortic dissection, it does not always cause coronary ischemia. The extent of myocardial damage varies from case to case. Moreover, since the definition of ACI varies from paper to paper, it is unknown what the difference is between ACI with and without myocardial necrosis. In general, it can be assumed that cases with myocardial infarction have worse results. However, it is unknown how poor ACI is with myocardiac ischemia and how optimistic it is without it. This study compared the surgical results between the two groups of ACI with or without myocardiac ischemia. Methods Among 348 patients who underwent an emergency operation for acute type A aortic dissection, there were 28 (8.0%) patients complicated by ACI and underwent additional coronary artery bypass grafting. We divided 26 of those patients into two groups; the MI group ( with CK-MB elevation) and the NMI group (without CK-MB elevation) and compared both groups. Results Of the 26, sixteen were in the MI group, and ten were in the NMI group. The average CK-MB in the MI group was 225.5 IU/L, and that in the NMI group was 13.5 IU/L. The mean time from onset to surgery was 248 minutes in the MI group, 250 minutes in the NMI group. There was statistical significance in mortality ( 69% vs. 13%, p=0.03). There was no significance in major complications (ICU days, reintubation, reoperation, pneumonia, sepsis). Conclusions Acute coronary artery involvement was associated with 8.0% of patients with ATAAD, and 62% of them had myocardial ischemia with CK-MB elevation. As expected, the MI group had significantly higher mortality than the NMI group. It is crucial for cases with suspected ACI to obtain coronary perfusion as soon as possible to prevent CK-MB from elevationg.

Introduction: Acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) is rapidly lethal and requires comprehensive tactics and decision making. To refine our respective approach we retrospectively analyzed our patients undergoing urgent surgery in our hybrid operating room over a 10 year period for the impact of immediate preoperative coronary angiography (CA), aortography, and/or intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) for the detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) and/or arterial malperfusion. Methods: 136 patients (mean age: 60.6 y ± 13; 63% male, March 2004-February 2014) underwent preoperative CA with or without IVUS. We assessed the time interval from preoperative CA to surgery and the impact for concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or endovascular interventions. Results: The delay to proceed with surgery due to preoperative catheterization averaged 32 min ± 26 (Fig. 1) in the setting of the hybrid OR. CA revealed CAD in 47/136 (35%) patients, with CABG consequently performed in 38 (28%). In 12 (9%) patients, CABG was necessary due to ostium obstruction by the dissection. 30-day mortality more than doubled in patients with concomitant CAD (27.7% vs. 11.2%, respectively, p<0.01). However in patients with confirmed CAD, mortality was less 19% (6/31), in those undergoing CABG, compared to 44% (7/16) for isolated aortic repair (p=0.08). Conclusions: In a hybrid operating room setting, preoperative coronary and aortic angiography do not unduly delay surgery, facilitate diagnosis of coronary malperfusion, and allowing concomitant CABG in as much as 28% of patients.

Occlusion of a coronary artery by an acute type A aortic dissection presents a life-threatening emergency that is rarely seen and easy to misdiagnose. We present the case of a 75-year-old male who experienced sudden onset of severe left-sided chest pain due to an acute type A aortic dissection that obstructed the right coronary artery. Following an initial misdiagnosis of acute coronary syndrome, imaging revealed the presence of an aortic dissection. An emergency modified Bentall procedure was performed, in which the damaged aorta and aortic valve were replaced.

The Impact

Acute type A aortic dissection is a surgical emergency and management of such pathology can be complex with poor outcomes when there is organ malperfusion. Carotid artery involvement is present in 30% of patients diagnosed with acute type A aortic dissection, and given its emergency and complex nature, there is much controversy regarding the approach, extent of treatment, and timing of the intervention. It is clear that the occurrence of cerebral malperfusion adds an extra layer of complexity to the decision-making framework for treatment. Standardization and validation of the optimal management approach is required, and this should ideally be addressed with large-scale studies. Nonetheless, current literature supports the need for rapid recognition and diagnosis of acute type A aortic dissection with cerebral malperfusion, immediate and extensive surgical repair, and the appropriate use of cerebral perfusion techniques. This paper aims to discuss the current evidence regarding the impact of carotid artery involvement in both the management and outcomes of acute type A aortic dissection.
