Clinical presentation, management, and short-term outcome of patients with type A acute dissection complicated by mesenteric malperfusion: Observations from the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection

Abstract: Type A acute aortic dissection complicated by mesenteric malperfusion is a rare but ominous complication carrying a high risk of hospital mortality. Surgical/hybrid therapy, although associated with 2-fold hospital mortality, appears to be associated with better long-term outcomes in the management of type A acute aortic dissection in this setting.

“…Patients with malperfusion had longer hospital lengths of stay {20 vs. 12 [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] days, P=0.006}, as well as more reoperations for postoperative hemorrhage (24.0% vs. 5.6%, P=0.01) and a greater number of postoperative CNS events (44.0% vs. 18.3%, P=0.01).…”

“…In one of the largest series, Di Eusanio et al reviewed the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection, a database compiled from 18 contributing centers and comprised of 1,809 consecutive patients presenting with an acute, type A dissection, to better understand the influence of mesenteric malperfusion on outcomes. While only present in 3.8% of the patients, intestinal ischemia was associated with considerably higher in-hospital mortality (63.2% vs. 23.8%, P<0.001) (10). These patients were commonly afflicted by multiple sites of malperfusion and were routinely managed nonoperatively (10).…”

“…Registry IRAD data show that this complication occurs within 10% of cases of AAD and is commonly related to aortic regurgitation [9]. Although more common in Type A, heart failure may also be encountered in patients with Type B, suggesting additional aetiologies of heart failure, such as myocardial ischemia, pre-existing diastolic dysfunction or uncontrolled chronic hypertension.…”
