OBJECTIVE: To summarize the experiences of ligating left subclavian artery (LSA) in total arch replacement and stented elephant trunk implantation for Stanford type A aortic dissection patients with difficulty in exposing the LSA.
METHODS: Total arch replacement and stented elephant trunk implantation were performed on 79 consecutive patients from January 2008 to June 2010. Twenty-nine cases of the cohort undertook LSA ligation due to bad exposure. There were 21 males and 8 females patients, aged from 19 to 55 years with a mean of (44 ± 12) years. There were 12 acute dissections, 4 sub-acute dissections and 13 chronic dissections. Based on thoroughly evaluation of the Willis' circle and bilateral vertebral arteries through pre-operative imaging and intra-operative circulative parameters, if the collateral circulation was considered sufficient, LSA was ligated directly and only the innominate artery and carotid artery were reconstructed; if considered insufficient, an additional bypass from ascending aorta to left axillary artery was performed.
RESULTS: All the 29 operations were completed successfully. There was one patient died from pulmonary infection and the others recovered well.Blood pressure of left arms were lower than right postoperatively [(78 ± 17) mmHg vs. (126 ± 24) mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa, P < 0.01], but oxygen saturation, skin temperature and strength of the left hand were normal compared to the right. All the survived patients have been followed 1 - 27 months and none of them presented with any symptoms of left subclavian artery steal syndrome and ischemia of left arms.
CONCLUSIONS: Ligation of LSA under strict evaluation of collateral circulation could be safe in Type A dissection patients with bad exposure due to big ascending aortic aneurysm and will simplify the procedure significantly.
