Aortic balloon occlusion technique versus moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest with antegrade cerebral perfusion in total arch replacement and frozen elephant trunk for acute type A aortic dissection
Moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest (MHCA) with antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) is safe and efficient in total arch replacement (TAR) and frozen elephant trunk (FET) for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD).

Zusammenfassung: | Moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest (MHCA) with antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) is safe and efficient in total arch replacement (TAR) and frozen elephant trunk (FET) for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). Complications related to hypothermia and ischemia are inevitable, however. The aortic balloon occlusion (ABO) technique is performed to elevate the lowest nasopharyngeal temperature to 28°C and shorten the circulatory arrest time. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of this new technique.
We reviewed the clinical data of patients with ATAAD who underwent TAR and FET, including 79 who underwent ABO and 109 who underwent MHCA/ACP.
Circulatory arrest time was significantly lower in the ABO group compared with the MHCA/ACP group (mean, 4.8 ± 1.2 minutes vs 18.4 ± 3.1 minutes; P 24 hours (odds ratio [OR], 0.455; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.234-0.887; P = .021), hepatic dysfunction (OR, 0.218; 95% CI, 0.084-0.561; P = .002), and grade II-III AKI (OR, 0.432; 95% CI, 0.204-0.915; P = .028).
The ABO technique significantly shortens the circulatory arrest time in TAR and FET. Available clinical data suggest that it has a certain protective effect on the liver and kidney. Future large-sample studies are warranted to thoroughly evaluate this new technique. |
