초록

From January 1988 to December 1990, 18 adult patients with aortic disease underwent surgical repair using hypothermia and total circulatory arrest. The age at operation ranged from 17 years to 64 years[mean 45.2$\pm$10.7 years]. We disease entities included aortic dissection in 12, aortoannuloectasia in 3 and thoracic aortic aneurysm in 3 cases. Partial cardiopulmonary bypass via femoral vessels along with surface cooling was used upon the induction of deep hypothermia[18~20oC]. Modified Bentall operation was performed in 7 cases, ascending aorta replacement in 6, graft interposition in descending thoracic aorta in 3 and others in 2 cases. The circulatory arrest was maintained for periods of 2 minutes to 86 mimutes[mean 34.7$\pm$5.0 minutes]. Overall hospital mortality was 27.8%[5/18]: brain damage was responsible for the death of 2 patients. 4 patients out of 13 survivors experienced postoperative neurologic dysfunction, which was proved to be self-limited except one case showing left hemiparesis. 12 patients were followed up postoperatively with the mean follow-up period 22.7$\pm$10.1 months. There was no death. No new neurologic problems were observed during follow-up period. All but one patient showing recurrent dissection and aortic regurgitation are in exellent clinical condition. These clinical data suggests that the principle of deep hypothermia and total circulatory arrest can be applied rather safely in adult patients, especially in the treatment of patients with aortic disease, it can be a valuable adjunct with better clinical results.
