Open thoracoabdominal and abdominal aortic aneurysm repairs are some of the most challenging cases for anesthesiologists because of the potential for rapid blood loss combined with clamping and reperfusion, potential use of left heart bypass, the potential need for lung isolation, and potential placement and management of a spinal drain. In addition, patients often present with other significant comorbidities and a detailed understanding of the disease process, the complex physiology throughout the case, and the intricacies of organ protection are critical.

Surgical management of giant cell arteritis of the proximal aorta.
JTCVS Open
December 2024
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn.
Objective: Giant cell arteritis (GCA) may present as proximal aortic pathology requiring surgical intervention. We present our experience with surgical management of GCA in patients presenting with proximal aortic disease.
Methods: From January 1993 to May 2020, 184 adult patients were diagnosed with GCA on histopathology after undergoing cardiac surgery.
Predicting operative mortality in patients who undergo elective open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
JTCVS Open
December 2024
Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Michael E. DeBakey Department of Surgery, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Tex.
Background: We have developed a model aimed at identifying preoperative predictors of operative mortality in patients who undergo elective, open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) repair. We converted this model into an intuitive nomogram to aid preoperative counseling.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 2884 elective, open TAAA repairs performed between 1986 and 2023 in a single practice.
Endovascular Repair of Spontaneous Rupture of Stent Graft Branch in Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm-Management, Case Study, and Review.

Department of Vascular Surgery and Transplantation, Medical University of Bialystok, 15-276 Bialystok, Poland.
Stent-graft implantation is a widely recognized method for endovascular treatment of aortic aneurysms. In cases where the aneurysm involves the thoracic and abdominal aorta, repair including fenestrated and branched stent grafts provides a viable alternative. This approach, initially reserved for patients unsuitable for open surgery, has become preferred for anatomically appropriate thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms.

Introduction: Since the mid-1900s, techniques in the repair of aortic arch and thoracoabdominal aortic pathologies have drastically evolved. Open aortic surgical repair was once the sole option for both simple and complex aneurysmal degeneration. Today, a number of minimally invasive and hybrid approaches are now available to assist both the surgeon and patient in tackling this challenging problem.
