Summary
Hybrid aortic repair using Djumbodis stents effectively treats thoracoabdominal aortic dissection, showing high rates of false lumen thrombosis and low complication rates.
Area of Science:
- Cardiovascular Surgery
- Vascular Surgery
- Interventional Cardiology
Background:
- Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms and dissections pose significant surgical challenges.
- Hybrid approaches combining open repair with endovascular techniques are emerging.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze the outcomes of hybrid thoracoabdominal aortic repair using Djumbodis uncovered metal stents.
- To evaluate the efficacy and safety of this technique in patients with aortic dissection.
Main Methods:
- Retrospective analysis of 16 patients undergoing hybrid thoracoabdominal aortic repair from 2013-2015.
- Involved prosthetic repair combined with open implantation of Djumbodis stents.
- Postoperative MSCT angiography for assessment of aortic repair and visceral artery patency.
Main Results:
- High rates of false lumen thrombosis observed in both type A (72.7%) and type B (100%) aortic dissection repairs.
- No cases of neurological deficit, visceral malperfusion, or lower-limb ischemia.
- A single in-hospital mortality (6.3%) in the type A correction group.
Conclusions:
- Hybrid thoracoabdominal aortic repair with Djumbodis stents is an optimal approach.
- This technique reduces intraoperative trauma and complication rates.
- It achieves radical repair without compromising outcomes.
