Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Ministernotomy has been advocated over recent years as an alternative technique for different cardiovascular surgical procedures to reduce the surgical trauma associated with conventional full sternotomy. In recent years, several reports have addressed minimally invasive approaches to the proximal aorta and aortic arch through a partial upper sternotomy (PUS). We reviewed our experience of minimally invasive open aortic arch reconstruction with a branched graft through a PUS. METHODS:Between February 2016 and December 2018, 22 patients underwent open arch repair through a PUS. Moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest and antegrade selective cerebral perfusion were used for organ protection. The median patient age was 76 years (range, 65-86). Renal insufficiency was observed in 14 patients (64%) and chronic lung disease, in 11 (50%). Total arch replacement was performed in 20 patients (91%), while the remaining 2 (9%) received partial arch replacement with reconstruction of two supraaortic vessels. Aortic valve replacement with a tissue valve or aortic valve repair was each performed concomitantly in one patient (5%) as a concomitant procedure. The median durations of cardiopulmonary bypass, aortic cross-clamping, and circulatory arrest were 214, 109, and 50 min, respectively. RESULTS:No early deaths, permanent neurological deficits, or spinal cord injuries occurred. One patient (5%) required intraoperative conversion to full sternotomy because of bleeding caused by a venting cannula injury. Three patients (14%) required re-exploration because of bleeding. Prolonged ventilation occurred in 2 patients (9%) with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. CONCLUSIONS:Minimally invasive aortic arch reconstruction with branched grafts through a PUS can be safely performed with satisfactory perioperative outcomes.
