Contraindications to the Operative Repair of a Type A Dissection
Even acute MI in the setting of dissection is not a surgical contraindication. Acute hemorrhagic stroke is, however, a relative contraindication, due to the necessity of intraoperative heparinization.
2014 ESC Guidelines on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Aortic Diseases[1]
" The axillary artery should be considered as first choice for cannulation for surgery of the aortic arch and in aortic dissection. (Level of Evidence: C)"
2010 ACCF/AHA/AATS/ACR/ASA/SCA/SCAI/SIR/STS/SVM Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Patients With Thoracic Aortic Disease (DO NOT EDIT)[2]
"1. For patients with acute aortic disease that requires urgent repair, a multidisciplinary team should determine the most suitable intervention. (Level of Evidence: C-EO)"
"3. If the maximal cross-sectional area in square centimeters of the ascending aorta or root divided by the patient's height in meters exceeds a ratio of 10, surgical repair is reasonable because shorter patients have dissection at a smaller size and 15% of patients with Marfan syndrome have dissection at a size smaller than 5.0 cm.[5][6][7](Level of Evidence: C)"
"1. In preparation for surgery, imaging studies adequate to establish the extent of disease and the potential limits of the planned procedure are recommended. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"1. The choice of anesthetic techniques and agents and patient monitoring techniques should be tailored to individual patient needs to facilitate surgical and perfusion techniques and the monitoring of hemodynamics and organ function. (Level of Evidence: C)"
