Background and Technical Overview

Long Xiang introduces a conservative yet innovative approach to managing acute Type A aortic dissections, particularly when the dissection extends into the aortic sinus. Traditional surgical methods like the Bentall or David procedures, although effective, carry high complexity and risk. Using synthetic graft patches to shape the aortic sinus allows for effective repair of the tear while minimizing the need to replace the entire aortic root, thereby reducing surgical risk.

Surgical Methodology and Outcomes

• Procedure Details: Long Xiang describes the selection of appropriate synthetic graft patches, fixation techniques, and suturing methods to ensure stability and closure of the vessel.

• Effectiveness: Illustrations of pre- and post-operative imaging demonstrate the method’s efficacy in reducing surgical trauma and enhancing success rates.

Clinical Research Data and Case Analysis

• Study Results: Analysis of multiple cases shows positive outcomes, with the majority of patients experiencing good cardiac function recovery post-surgery and effective restoration and stabilization of the aortic sinus shape.

Conclusions and Future Directions

• Advantages: The use of synthetic graft patches showcases unique benefits in the treatment of acute Type A aortic dissections, particularly in aortic sinus shaping.

• Research Outlook: Future studies will further investigate the applicability and long-term effects of this method in a broader patient population.
