Hybrid treatment of aortic dissection associated with Kommerell's diverticulum

Abstract: This clinical case demonstrates a successful simultaneous approach for Type B aortic dissection in association with Kommerell's diverticulum using an E-vita OPEN PLUS Hybrid prosthesis. Computed tomography in the early postoperative period and after a 6-month follow-up showed favourable surgical outcomes.

“…Subsequently, increasing experience with TEVAR has paved the way for less invasive hybrid approaches. However, even hybrid repair (HR) still needs thoracotomy or sternotomy and replacement of the ascending aorta, which may still lead to multiple complications due to vast exposure and strict operative conditions during the long surgery [ 42 ].…”

“…Moreover "steep aortic arch", which is one of the characteristic of RAA, might result in increasing risk of kinking of stent graft or retrograde type A dissection [4]. Hybrid procedure, firstly total arch replacement with elephant trunk (ET) followed by TEVAR and single stage repair using FET, have also been reported [5]. However, single stage repair using long FET or ET might be accompanied with the risk of spinal cord injury.…”

“…In the last few decades, only a few case reports have been published. Several strategies, such as total arch replacement, 2 stent elephant trunk, 3 thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), 4 chimney technique, 5,6 and a hybrid procedure, 7 have been reported as management options for pathology. However, there is no consensus on the optimal treatment strategy for coexistence of TBAD and an ARSA owing to the rarity of cases.…”
