<p>Bleeding after surgery for acute aortic dissection in patients who receive antithrombotic therapy for incorrect diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome is a serious challenge for the surgical team. In this setting, additional control of bleeding may be achieved by using a modified Cabrol shunt. In this report we present our experience in acute Type A aortic dissection surgery.</p>

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.

AbstractSurgical treatment of Type-A acute aortic dissection is associated with high mortality and morbidity. One of the reasons is perioperative bleeding, which may lead to worse outcomes. We present a case of successful treatment of a patient with 18-litre perioperative blood loss in DeBakey Type-I acute aortic dissection with drug-induced hypocoagulation and malperfusion of a lower extremity.

Abstract Background Despite continuous developments and advances in the perioperative management of patients suffering from acute aortic dissection type A (AADA), the associated postoperative morbidity and mortality remain high and strongly depend on the preoperative clinical status. The associated postoperative mortality is still hard to predict prior to the surgical procedure. The so-called German Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection Type A (GERAADA) score uses very basic and easily retrievable parameters and was specifically designed for predicting the 30-day mortality rate in patients undergoing surgery for AADA. This study evaluated impact of the GERAADA score in the authors’ institutional results. MethodsAmong 101 acute type A aortic dissection patients treated at our hospital during August 2015–March 2021, the GERAADA was calculated individually and retrospectively. Predicted and actual mortalities were assessed, and independent predicted factors were searched. The primary endpoint was defined as comparison of GERAADA scores and early mortality, and the secondary endpoints were defined as comparison of GERAADA scores and other postoperative results, and comparison of preoperative factors and postoperative results regardless to GERAADA scores.ResultsWhile the overall 30-day mortality for the entire study cohort calculated by the GERAADA score was 14.3 (8.1-77.6) %, the actual mortality rate was 6%. However, the GERAADA score was significantly high in some postoperative complications and showed significant correlation with some peri- and post-operative factors. In addition, factors not belonging to GERAADA score such as time from onset to arrival at the hospital, time from onset to arrival at the operation room, spouse presence, and hemodialysis were significantly associated with 30-day mortality.ConclusionsAlthough the actual mortality was lower than predicted, GERAADA score may impact on the postoperative course. In addition, it would be desirable to add parameters such as the time from onset to arrival, family background, and hemodialysis for further accuracy.

Successful treatment of type A acute aortic dissection depends on the promptness of diagnostic evaluation and therapy. Fast diagnosis can be challenged by numerous complications such as myocardial ischemia, acute aortic insufficiency, and disturbances in organ perfusion and pericardial tamponade. The authors report the case history of a 72-year-old woman, who was admitted after resuscitation with ST segment elevation. Echocardiography revealed acute type A aortic dissection with signs of pericardial tamponade. An emergency operation consisting of the resection of the ascending aorta and the reconstruction of the aortic root was performed, which took six hours from admission until the end of the operation. Follow-up examinations demonstrated good left ventricular function and competent aortic valve. The authors propose that with the development of diagnostic and therapeutic options, faster and less invasive interventions will be introduced in near future for the treatment of acute aortic dissection, which may reduce the morbidity and mortality rates of this lethal illness.

We compared the performance of four existing risk models and a newly developed risk score for type A acute aortic dissection surgery. In 327 consecutives with type A aortic dissection surgery patients during 2003/03-2017/03 at our centre, operative mortality occurred in 65 (19.9%). Independent predictors of operative mortality were critical pre-operative state and malperfusion syndrome, and a novel additive “CritMal” Score was constructed from this. C-statistics (95% confidence interval) for operative mortality were EuroSCORE 0.60 (0.52-0.67), EuroSCORE II 0.64 (0.57-0.72), Rampoldi 0.68 (0.59-0.76), Leontyev 0.56 (0.48-0.64), and CritMal 0.72 (0.64-0.80) respectively. This is the first study externally assessing surgical scores for aortic dissection surgery, with modest accuracy for all and moderate for CritMal. There is room for improvement of these risk models, and further refinements and external validation are warranted for clinical application.
