Objective To explore the single-center experience of hybrid therapy in treatment of Stanford type A aortic dissection, and to make a comparison of the clinical results of this hybrid therapy with total arch replacement surgery in the same period.Methods From March 2017 to April 2020, 272 patients with Stanford type A aortic dissection underwent surgical treatment in our center, including 147 patients (126 males and 21 females) who received the aortic arch surgery. Among them, 106 patients underwent replacement of ascending aorta+aortic arch+stent trunk (total arch replacement group), while 41 patients underwent one-stop compound total arch type Ⅱ hybrid surgery (compound total arch replacement group). We tried to identify whether hybrid surgery really simplified total arch replacement surgery of the aortic dissection by comparing the operative mortality, postoperative complication rate, operative time, extracorporeal circulation time, etc.Results There was no statistical difference in preoperative clinical data or death rate between the two groups. However, blood transfusion (6.74±7.35 U vs. 4.65±6.87 U, P<0.05), postoperative respiratory insufficiency [16 (15.09%) vs. 2 (4.88%), P<0.05], and apoplexy [3 (2.83%) vs. 0, P<0.05], paraplegia [2 (1.89%) vs. 0, P<0.05], in the compound total arch replacement group was significantly better than those of the total arch replacement group. The compound total arch replacement group did not shorten the total operation time, but it was significantly better in terms of extracorporeal circulation time (175.50±55.70 min vs. 129.70±48.80 min, P<0.05), aortic block time (103.10±23.70 min vs. 49.70±30.10 min, P<0.05), and the time of stopping the circulation or avoiding stopping the circulation (32.10±7.20 min vs. 0 min, P<0.05). The postoperative mechanical ventilation time was shorter in the compound total arch group (62.60±31.70 h vs. 41.30±32.60 h, P<0.05), and the time of staying in ICU (124.50±61.50 h vs. 63.40±71.20 h, P<0.05) and the postoperative hospital stay (13.50±11.20 d vs. 9.20±7.20 d, P<0.05) were significantly shorter than those in the total replacement group. A total of 138 patients were followed up for 6-38 (15.8±6.4) months. There was no statistical difference in one-year mortality or three-year mortality (P>0.05).Conclusion Hybrid surgery shortens extracorporeal circulation time, while reduces or avoids the time of deep hypothermia circulatory arrest, the incidence of complications and the time of hospital stay. In conclusions, hybrid surgery simplifies the arch management of acute Stanford type A aortic dissection.
