Summary

This single-centre retrospective observational cohort study describes the technical feasibility of direct three-vessel antegrade cerebral perfusion, designated modified antegrade cerebral perfusion (MACP), during emergency total arch replacement for acute type A aortic dissection. MACP delivers antegrade cerebral perfusion directly to the brachiocephalic, left common carotid, and left subclavian arteries. Outcomes are summarised descriptively and compared exploratorily with unilateral right axillary antegrade cerebral perfusion (uACP). Because perfusion strategy and treating surgeon were completely confounded, the comparative analyses are intended only to contextualise the technical experience and generate hypotheses.

Conditions

  • Acute Type A Aortic Dissection

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Direct Three-Vessel Antegrade Cerebral Perfusion (MACP)

Direct antegrade cerebral perfusion through balloon-tipped catheters inserted into the brachiocephalic, left common carotid, and left subclavian arteries during emergency total arch replacement.

PROCEDURE

Unilateral Right Axillary Antegrade Cerebral Perfusion (uACP)

Unilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion delivered through right axillary artery cannulation during emergency total arch replacement.
