Objective To analyze the surgical effect of total aortic arch replacement and stented elephant trunk (Sun’s procedure) for acute or chronic Stanford type A aortic dissection, and to investigate the optimal surgical timing for Stanford type A aortic dissection involving aortic arch. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 327 patients with acute or chronic Stanford type A aortic dissection treated by Sun's procedure from June 2010 to June 2014 in Guangdong Cardiovascular Institute. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether the time from onset to operation was longer than 2 weeks: an acute group with 229 patients (≤2 weeks, the average time of onset to operation 5.70±3.50 d) and a chronic group with 98 patients (>2 weeks, the average time of onset to operation 21.60±15.70 d). There were 186 males and 43 females with a mean age of 47.47±11.19 years in the acute group, and 76 males and 22 females with a mean age of 45.62±12.92 years in the chronic group. The patients discharged from hospital were followed up for one year. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in preoperative data. The rate of coronary artery bypass grafting, cardiopulmonary bypass time, aortic cross-clamping time, intraoperative and postoperative 24 h red blood cell intake were higher or more in the acute group than those in the chronic group (P<0.05). The in-hospital morality, ICU stay, mechanical ventilation time, the incidence of neurological dysfunction, low cardiac output syndrome, acute renal failure with continuous renal replacement therapy, hepatic insufficiency, poor wound healing were higher or more in the acute group than those in the chronic group (P<0.05). During one year follow-up, the survival rate of the acute and chronic groups was 97.0% and 97.6% respectively (P>0.05). No new complications were found in the two groups. The irreversible neurological dysfunction, paraplegia and renal failure showed no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion The short-term mortality and complications of acute Stanford A aortic dissection involving aortic arch treated by Sun’s procedure are significantly higher or more than those of chronic Stanford type A aortic dissection. The risk of surgical treatment in acute phase is high.
