摘要Background Hybrid procedures including debranching of visceral and renal arteries followed by endovascular exclusion of the thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) have recently been proposed as a less invasive alternative to conventional TAAA surgery.This study aimed to evaluate the immediate and long-term outcomes of hybrid procedures for TAAA in high-risk patients.Methods Between September 1998 and May 2012,32 high-risk TAAA patients (five females,median age 61.5 years)underwent hybrid procedures at a single institution.Simultaneous approach and staged approach were performed on the basis of patients' conditions.Follow-up computed tomography angiography (CTA) was routinely performed before discharge and at 6,12 months and annually thereafter.Results Procedural success was achieved in all cases.The median hospital stay was (21.5±2.3) days,and the median procedure time was (420±31) minutes.Blood loss averaged (2100±261) ml.A total of 124 visceral artery bypasses was performed.Two patients (6.3％) died within 30 days.One patient exhibited complete paraplegia (3.1％).The visceral graft patency was 96.1％ at 3 years.All-cause survival rates were 93.8％,87.5％,81.3％ and 53.1％ at 1,2,3 and 5 years,respectively.No patient died due to aortic events.The freedom rates from aortic events were 96.9％,93.6％,87.5％,68.8％ at 1,2,3 and 5 years,respectively.Conclusions The results of visceral hybrid repair for high-risk patients with complex TAAAs are encouraging.However,the procedure is still a significant physiological insult to patients.Until branched and fenestrated endovascular repair become more common,hybrid procedure will continue to have a role in high-risk patients.
