Brief Summary: Acute Stanford type A aortic dissection (TAAD) is a life-threatening clinical status requiring surgery that is usually performed as a salvage procedure.We planned a multicenter study to evaluate the balance between the patient's condition and those therapeutic strategies that may limit the risk of late adverse events in patients who will be underwent surgery for appropriate management of TAAD
Detailed Description: Substantial evidence has suggested a decrease of early mortality during the last years, however recently the Nordic Consortium for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection registry recorded 18% of 30-day mortality after surgery for ATAAD. Similarly, the prospective German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection Type A confirmed this data reporting a 30-day mortality of 16.9%. Again, results from recent analysis of the Society of Thoracic Surgeon database that report 7353 procedures from 2014 and 2017 for acute TAAD revealed a 30-day mortality of 17%. Understanding the balance between the patient's conditions which may not allow extensive procedure and those treatment strategies which may limit the risk of late adverse events in patients who remain alive long after the surgery is essential for an appropriate management of ATAAD. The best treatment option in patients with ATAAD is dictated by the balance between patient conditions that may not allow for extensive procedures and those more conservative treatment strategies that limit the risk of late adverse events in patients who remain alive long after surgery. surgery. However, previous evidence from large series of patients do not provide information on the long-term durability of these procedures. Here investigators planned a multicenter study to evaluate the contemporary early outcomes and duration of different surgical strategies for 15-year acute ATAAD in a large study population.
