OBJECTIVE: Persistent false lumen perfusion due to the presence of a thick aortic septum is a significant obstacle to successful thoracic endovascular aortic repair for chronic type B aortic dissection (cTBAD). We describe our new approach of laser aortic septotomy to optimize the landing zone.
METHODS: Between 2019 and 2020, 11 patients with cTBAD with degenerative aneurysm underwent laser aortic septotomy during thoracic endovascular aortic repair. A prospectively maintained database was retrospectively reviewed.
RESULTS: The median age was 70.0 years, and 10 (91%) were men. Six (55%) were de novo type B aortic dissection and 5 (45%) were residual type B aortic dissection. The age of aortic dissection was 2.9 years (interquartile range, 1.1-12.1). Technical success was achieved in 91% (10/11). In 1 case (9%), laser aortic septotomy was not feasible due to extremely tortuous aorta. Among successful cases, the median extents of proximal and distal laser fenestrations were Th7.5 and Th11.0, respectively and distal landing zones included zone 4 (40%) and zone 5 (60%). Two (18%) underwent a continuous longitudinal laser fenestration, and 8 (73%) had longitudinal spot laser fenestrations with immediate balloon dilatations. Apposition of the stent-graft to the outer aortic wall of the newly created common aortic lumen with elimination of retrograde false lumen flow was achieved in all cases.
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first description using the laser technology to optimize the distal landing zone for cTBAD. This new technique is safe and reproducible, with excellent controllability to achieve aortic septotomy at the desired target aorta segment.
