1 Another pregnancy after a previous aortic dissection in pregnancy? Dr Leisa Freeman GUCH & Maternal Cardiology Unit Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital UK

2 Arterial wall changes & haemodynamic effects occur in every pregnancy so why not more Aortic Dissection? Pregnancy promotes dilatation aorta, renal & placental resistance vessels Oestrogen receptors seen in fresh aortic tissue associated with: fragmentation of reticular fibres, diminished acid mucopolysaccarides, loss normal corrugation of elastic tissue Immer et al Ann Thorac Surg 2003:76; x

3 International Registry Aortic Dissection Braverman et al Jacc 2012:59(13) Suppl E /3712 AD in pregnancy 11 had full data Mean age 33 (20-40) 7/11 post partum 1/11 1 st Trimester 3/11 3 rd Trimester Type A 5 (surgical rep) Type B - 6 (2/6 surgery) Underlying cause in all Marfan = 4 BiAV = 1, EDIV = 1 L-D = 1; FHAoA = 1 Hypertension = 3 Mean AoD Type A = 5.2cm( ) Mean AoD Type B = 3.3cm ( ) Immer review AD in pregnancy: Type A pre 5 post; Type B 6 pre 4 post

4 Risk Factors Aortic Dissection in Pregnancy Increasing age Multiparity Trauma Coarctation Bicuspid Aortopathy Systemic hypertension Collagen vascular e.g. Marfan, ED IV, Loeys- Dietz, Turner Circulation 2010;121:e266-e369

5 Case History #1 28 PE teacher no FH nil else. P1 G0 32/40 acute dissection. Successful LCCS then AVR + root replacement Wants another baby Full genetic screen negative; no family history, normotensive always Includes Type B dissection to femoral bifurcation

6 Case History # 2 NW P2 G2 (twins) Asc ao Dissection 38/40 LCCS both twins alive Asc Ao root replacement - still type B dissection to bifurcation. Interval surveillance no inc in size Still alive 5 yrs on. No FH, negative genetics (Marfan/EDIV, LD etc) Normotensive

7 Level of evidence IIIC Level of Evidence 1C

8 Questions Is pregnancy an initiator of arterial degeneration whose effects are additive with subsequent pregnancies and women should be counselled absolutely against further pregnancy. Alternatively these women have identified themselves as having an unrecognised genetic aortopathy and should be counselled against further pregnancy OR Future pregnancy might be considered with caveats and concomitant medication, intense cardiological surveillance with early elective delivery

9 MRI assessment 51 women comparing high parity with none or 1 pregnancy Low parity (n = 23) High parity (n = 28) P Age, years (SD) 43.2 (11.9) 46.0 (12.9) White Race, n (%) 16/23 (69.6%) 21/28 (75%) Pregnancies (number) < BSA, m 2 (SD) 1.67 (0.18) 1.72 (0.16) BMI, kg/m 2 (SD) 24.9 (5.2) 25.6 (4.2) 0.592* Systolic blood pressure, mm Hg (SD) Diastolic blood pressure, mm Hg (SD) Ascending aortic diameter, cm (SD) Descending aortic diameter, cm (SD) (16.4) (13.8) 0.356* 72.9 (9.7) 69.3 (7.5) 0.147* 2.39 (0.34) 2.67 (0.48) (0.23) 1.88 (0.28) Multiparous women had 13% bigger Asc Aorta and 10% Desc Ao cf low parity Multivariate analysis age and parity associated with bigger Asc Ao Age and BSA correlated with bigger desc Ao (parity less so) Gutin et al Int J Cardiol 2013:165(2); 383

10 Long term FU type B dissections Desc Ao size increases mostly due to increase in false lumen (6.5mm cf 0.79mm/yr true lumen)* Desc Ao increase only seen in 59% of 191pts predictors of no expansion female sex, use of CCH, intramural haematoma** Partial thrombosis of false lumen predicts late mortality *** Blount et al AJR 2009;192(5) W222 ;**Jonker et al Ann Thor Surg 2012:94(4): *** Tsai et alnejm 2007:357(4)345
