Abstract
Connective tissue disorders such as Marfan- and Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) can lead to aortic aneurysms and aortic dissections in children. Patients with LDS often necessitating multiple aortic surgeries throughout their lives to extend their lifespan. A boy with LDS underwent Bentall procedure at the age of three for aortic aneurysm. At the age of six, this boy was referred to the hospital again due to severe abdominal pain. Computed tomographic angiography (CTA)indicates aortic dissection (DeBakey Type III, Stanford Type B). After a multidisciplinary team discussion, a successful thoracoabdominal aortic replacement was performed.
马凡综合征和洛伊-迪茨综合征(LDS)等结缔组织疾病可导致儿童主动脉瘤和主动脉夹层。LDS 患者往往需要终生进行多次主动脉手术以延长寿命。一名患有 LDS 的男孩在三岁时因主动脉瘤接受了 Bentall 手术。六岁时,这名男孩因剧烈腹痛再次转诊到医院。计算机断层扫描血管造影(CTA)显示为主动脉夹层(DeBakey III 型,Stanford B 型)。多学科团队讨论后,成功实施了胸腹主动脉置换术。
