treatment options for TAA/TAD

Thoracic aortic aneurysms/dissections
Incidence of TAA is approximately 10.4 per 100,000 people.
Only about 20 to 30 percent of patients who get to the hospital with a
ruptured TAA survive.
For those over 65, the incidence of TAA is 3-4%.
Death from TAA is one of the 15 major causes of death.
Treatment options for TAA/TAD including neck vessels
1.
Conventional open surgery.
2.
Total endovascular approach.
3.
Hybrid surgery approach and chimney techniques.
Open surgery remains the gold standard, but with a cost!

Zone 2: LSA coverage
When do we need to revascularize LSA
- History of CABG with patent LIMA – LAD graft
- Small right vertebral artery
- Left vertebral artery ends up at PICA (posterior inferior cerebellar artery)
- Axillary – femoral bypass
- High risks of paraplegia: long thoracic stent-graft of history of AAA surgery
- Occlusion of hypogastric artery
Zone 1: landing zone distal to innominate artery
Zone 0: landing zone at ascending aorta
- Requires medial sternotomy
- Trifurcated graft to revascularize
neck vessels and LSA
- Deliver stent-graft distal to ascending
aorta-graft anastomosis
Zone 0: Chimney of the innominate artery
- Carotid – carotid – subclavian bypass
- Deliver chimney stent graft (Endurant
limb) through cut down Rt. axillary artery
- Deliver thoracic stent graft retrograde
from the groin
- Mark the position of 2 stent then deploy
thoracic stent graft first then chimney
stent graft
