Impact of Organ Malperfusion on Mortality and Morbidity in Acute Type A Aortic Dissections

Abstract

Acute type A aortic dissections with organ malperfusion has higher postoperative mortality and morbidity. Immediate aortic repair is our management strategy in patients with limb, coronary, and neurological malperfusion. To reduce the extremely high mortality with mesenteric malperfusion, new strategies should be investigated such as surgical delay with interventional procedures.
