Abstract
Background: To analyze the clinical effect of debranching thoracic endovascular aortic repair combined with ascending aortic banding.
Methods: The clinical data of patients who underwent a debranching thoracic endovascular aortic repair combined with ascending aortic banding at Anzhen Hospital (Beijing, China) between January 2019 and December 2021 were reviewed to evaluate the occurrence and outcomes of postoperative complications.
Results: A total of 30 patients underwent a debranching thoracic endovascular aortic repair combined with ascending aortic banding. There were 28 male patients (93.3%) with an average age of 59.9 ± 11.8 years. Twenty-five patients underwent simultaneous surgery and five patients had staged surgery. Postoperatively, two patients developed complete paraplegia (6.7%), three patients developed incomplete paraplegia (10%), two patients developed cerebral infarction (6.7%), and one patient developed femoral artery thromboembolism (3.3%). No patient died during the perioperative period, and one patient (3.3%) died during the follow-up period. None of the patients underwent retrograde type A aortic dissection during the perioperative and postoperative follow-up periods.
Conclusions: Banding the ascending aorta with a vascular graft to restrict its movement and to serve as the proximal anchoring area of the stent graft can reduce the risk of retrograde type A aortic dissection.
