OBJECTIVE: Retrograde false lumen flow through distal entry tears poses a challenge in the treatment of chronic DeBakey IIIb aneurysms. In the present report, we have described the feasibility and outcomes of false lumen occlusion using an atrial septal occluder (ASO) in chronic DeBakey IIIb dissection associated with a descending aneurysm.
METHODS: All the patients who had undergone thoracic endovascular aortic repair for chronic DeBakey IIIb aortic dissection at our institution from January 2014 to November 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. The primary endpoints were technical success and in-hospital postoperative results. The secondary endpoints included the midterm survival status and aortic remodeling outcomes.
RESULTS: A total of 37 patients (age, 56.24 ± 10.47 years) with persistent retrograde false lumen perfusion and aneurysm formation at the thoracic segment were treated using an ASO for false lumen occlusion. We achieved 100% technical success. No spinal cord ischemia or in-hospital death was observed. The median follow-up time was 36 months (interquartile range, 24-51 months). After the procedure, three patients (8.1%) had had an endoleak (type Ia in two patients and type II in one patients), and five patients had required late reintervention. The overall 5-year survival rate was 71%. One aortic-related death (2.7% of the total cohort) occurred during follow-up at 9 months. Complete thrombosis of the false lumen along the treated aortic segment was recorded postoperatively in 34 patients (91.9%) at the final follow-up using computed tomography angiography. In a mixed-effects model, a diameter analysis revealed that the thoracic true lumen diameter had increased and the thoracic false lumen diameter had decreased significantly (0.256 mm/mo, P < .001; and -0.512 mm/mo, P < .001, respectively).
CONCLUSIONS: The combination of standard thoracic endovascular aortic repair and false lumen occlusion using the ASO to promote false lumen thrombosis and remodeling in the treated segments is a technically feasible and effective alternative treatment of chronic DeBakey IIIb dissection with an associated descending aneurysm. This approach yielded satisfactory midterm survival outcomes and a low incidence of aortic-related death in our patients. However, further studies with more subjects and a prospective design should verify our findings before routine clinical implementation of this technique.
