Abstract:
:The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of endoluminal stent-graft placement in an angiographic suite for the treatment of emergent type-B aortic dissections and ruptured thoracic aortal aneurysms. Twenty-six patients with either urgent type-B dissection (n=8) or aneurysms (n=18) of the descending thoracic aorta were chosen for stent-graft implantation. All patients received a multidetector-row CT angiography of the whole aorta and pelvic arteries prior to stent-graft implantation. All procedures were performed in a fully equipped digital subtraction angiography (DSA) suite under general anesthesia. In 20 patients Talent LPS tube grafts and in 4 patients an Excluder graft were used. Access was achieved via surgical cut-down in the left (n=7) or right (n=19) groin. Sealing was successful in 24 patients. The proximal covered portion of the stent graft was placed across the left subclavian artery in 2 patients. Procedural success was achieved in 23 of 24 patients. One patient required a second stent-graft placement before the aneurysm was sealed. One patient with an acute perforation of the descending aorta died due to cardiac failure prior to stent-graft implantation. In 1 patient stent-graft delivery failed due to severe calcification of both common iliac arteries. Endoluminal treatment of both urgent type-B aortic dissections and thoracic aortal aneurysms with stent graft is an attractive alternative treatment to surgical repair. The placement of stent grafts in an angiographic suite is a safe and feasible method with good clinical effectiveness and, so far, good clinical outcome.
