Method: Until February 2003, total aortic arch replacement was performed in 43 patients. There were 26 men and 17 women, and the age ranged from 35 to 81 years with a mean age of 62 years. The operative technique for arch replacement used separated prosthetic grafts, selective cerebral perfusion (SCP), continuous cold blood cardioplegia (CCBC), and open distal anastomosis under hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA). Combined procedures consisted of coronary bypass grafting, in 4 patients, aortic valve resuspension, in 2 patients, and Bentall s procedure, in 4 patients. Results: The hospital mortality rate was 20.9% (9 of the 43 patients). The causes of death were cerebral infarction in 3 patients, multiple organ failure due to renal and intestinal ischemia and massive bleeding in 2, pulmonary embolism in 1, pneumonia in 1, mediastinitis in 1, and myonephropathic metabolic syndrome in 1, respectively. The long-term results yielded an actuarial survival rate of 66.9% for 10 years. The percentage of cases free of reoperation was 76.9% for 10 years. Conclusion: The technique of total arch replacement using separated prosthetic grafts, SCP, CCBC, and open distal anastomosis under HCA is a useful operative method in patients with aortic arch aneurysm and decreases cerebrovascular accidents.
