• 1953 Cooley and DeBakey used artificial grafts for repair • 1953 Bahnson introduced aneurysmorrhaphy • 1957 cardiopulmonary bypass became available 7 Definition • Early operations were designed to produce distal internal fenestration to cause downstream decompression of the aorta. 6 History • 1951 Lam and Aram introduced homografts for repair of descending thoracic aneurysms media causes rupture of the intima or dissecting hematoma in an intimal tear. 12 Causes of Aneurysm • Medial degeneration and local dilatation • Atherosclerosis • Syphilis (ascending only) • Bacterial infections (mycotic) • Congenital abnormalities • Trauma • Annuloaortic ectasia • Column of blood is driven by the force of the left ventricular systolic pressure which strips the intima from the adventitia 11 Definition • Acute – less than 14 days old • Chicken or the egg ? – Hemorrhage in the CT:脑内多发梗塞 2 定位诊断 • 双侧颈内动脉系统,左侧著 • 椎基底动脉系统? 3 定性诊断 • 心源性栓塞 主动脉机械瓣膜组织 栓子脱落 4 Aortic Dissection Anatomy,Physiology and Principles of Therapy 5 History • 1555 – Vesalius diagnosed a pulsating tumor near the vertebrae in a patient’s back and called it “a dilatation of the aorta”1826 心源性脑栓塞 1 病历特点 • 中年男性,反复发作渐进性病程; • 既往高血压史,夹层动脉瘤及主动脉瓣关闭不 全换瓣术后3年,口服抗凝药不规范。近2年多 次脑梗塞史。 • 发病表现为反复发作的神经功能缺损,渐进性 的神经功能缺损。 • 查体主要表现为言语表达障碍,构音含混,右 面部麻木及右肢轻偏瘫,及右侧同向偏盲。 • 辅助检查:凝血象(INR)偏低; • 1826 – Laennec introduced the term dissecting aneurysm • 1800’s – surgery was performed on the entity by John Hunter, Astley Cooper and others even before the eபைடு நூலகம்a of general anesthesia 14 Pathophysiology • Law of Laplace: As a sphere increases in size, the wall tension of the sphere increases • Weakened wall • Dilatation • Expansion with pressure-related symptoms • Rupture • True aneurysm – localized enlargement of the aorta contained by all the layers of the aortic wall • False aneurysm – enlargement contained by the aortic adventitia and periaortic fibrous tissue. prone to rupture than the smaller ones • 5 year survival for symptomatic aneurysms is 27% 13 Causes of Dissection • Inherent weakness of the aortic wall • Hypertension – 70-90% • Pregnancy • Iatrogenic • Bicuspid aortic valve and coarctation • Closed chest trauma 15 Natural History • Not well documented • Signs, symptoms and prognosis related to the size of the aneurysm • Thoracic aneurysms larger than 6 cm are more 8 9 10 Definition • Aortic dissection – Sudden catastrophic event in which a tear in the intima allows blood to escape from the true lumen of the aorta rapidly separating the inner from the outer layer of the media
