The optimal management of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) remains a controversial subject. While some surgeons opt for a hemiarch approach to minimize bypass and cross-clamping time, others prefer partial or total arch replacement to prevent the need for additional operations. The advent of hybrid approaches offers a variety of options to the aortic surgeon in treating ATAAD.

Decision rules in the diagnostic work-up of aortic dissection.

Emerg Med J

January 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine, York Hospital, York, UK.

A short cut review of the literature was carried out to examine whether a decision rule in conjunction with a D-dimer can be used to rule out aortic dissection. 117 unique papers were found of which three systematic reviews included data on patients relevant to the clinical question; these are discussed in the paper. The author, date and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes, results and study weaknesses of the best papers are tabulated.

Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with a rare form of ventricular septal defect (VSD) needs careful attention when choosing the optimal strategy for repair. A neonate with TGA and an atypical VSD, which extended from the perimembranous to the juxta-arterial regions, underwent the arterial switch procedure. The large VSD was successfully closed via a trans-tricuspid combined with a trans-aortic valve approach concomitantly with the arterial switch maneuver.
