Concomitant Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Acute Type A Aortic Dissection Complicated by Coronary Malperfusion—Experience and Decision Making
Authors
Background: The management of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) complicated by coronary malperfusion can be challenging. In this study, we report a single center experience and revascularization strategy for patients with ATAAD and coronary malperfusion.
Methods: From 01/2000 to 12/2021, 195 patients with preoperative coronary malperfusion and involvement of the aortic root underwent surgery for ATAAD. Coronary malperfusion included presence of elevated cardiac enzymes, electrocardiographic signs of ischemia and/or new wall motion abnormalities in ultrasound. Patients were divided into four subgroups according to their pattern of coronary dissection (Neri A = ostial involvement by the dissection, Neri B = dissection extending into the coronary artery, Neri C = circumferential detachment or complete avulsion of the coronary artery). A novel subclass called “Neri negative” defined by aortic root dissection without coronary dissection was added. Additional subgroup analysis was performed involving patients receiving concomitant CABG either as part of a planned strategy or unplanned as a bailout strategy in case of persisting low cardiac output.

Conclusion: In case of Neri negative and Neri A patients, concomitant CABG may be restricted to isolated cases and may therefore not be necessary in general. Neri C patients should undergo concomitant CABG as well as liberal decision for aortic root replacement. Planned CABG in Neri B patients may be advisable as bailout CABG in this group is associated with poor outcome.
