TL;DR
This paper presents a new approach using endovascular recanalization and carotid stenting to restore cerebral blood flow in patients with aortic dissection and cerebral malperfusion.
Contribution
The study introduces emergency endovascular techniques as a novel treatment option for cerebral malperfusion in aortic dissection.
Findings
Endovascular recanalization and carotid stenting restored cerebral perfusion in two patients with aortic dissection.
Surgical correction was avoided in both cases due to neurological status concerns.
The approach showed potential as a life-saving intervention for acute carotid occlusion in aortic dissection.
Abstract
A type A aortic dissection (TAAD) is a dangerous condition requiring emergency surgery. Due to the similarity of the symptoms of cerebral malperfusion in TAAD and the signs of ischemic stroke, a differential diagnosis of these diseases is not always available. Patients with TAAD after cerebral malperfusion can have a neurological deficit. Thrombolysis is performed in this case. It can worsen the patient’s condition and increase the risk of mortality and disability. The aim of the study is to evaluate the new approach to restoring cerebral perfusion during aortic dissection. This approach includes endovascular recanalization and carotid stenting. Methods: Two clinical cases of TAAD complicated by cerebral malperfusion are described. The first patient is 73 years old and was admitted as planned to perform transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for grade III aortic stenosis. The…
