  8. Mechanisms of postoperative paraplegia after T(EV)AR • Reversible intraoperative spinal ischemia • Reperfusion injury • Breakdown of cellular membranes : edema • Spinal compression injury • Irreversible spinal ischemia • Permanent suppression of the spinal blood supply by the aortic procedure • Thromboembolic events within the spinal blood supply • Poor perioperative systemic hemodynamics

  13. Spinal angiography & Results

  14. Risk of paraplegia/paresis after endovascular repair • Unknown • Probably globally lesser than after open surgery • Selection bias • Better perioperative hemodynamics • Conservation of collateral pathways • Very low, especially in the Ak> and Ak< groups • Not null, especially whenever Ak= or Ak?

  15. Spinal angio versus spinal imaging • Exhaustive spinal angio (ESA) is our gold standard, especially for open surgery of TAAs II • ESA is technically demanding, time consuming, expensive and invasive • EVAR might require a less exhaustive evaluation : selective spinal imaging (SSI) • With modern CT technology, more and more cases can benefit from SSI without the need of another acquisition than that necessary to document the aortic lesion* * Kawaharada et al.Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 2002;21:970-4. * Yoshioka K et al. Radiographics 2003;23:1215-25

  16. Principles of selective spinal imaging • Explore all intercostal arteries to be covered by the stent-graft and adjacent • With multislice CT (16 bit +), using the same acquisition as that taken for imaging the aortic lesion • With sequential catheterization only in case of a failure • Classify according to the result

  17. Methods of spinal protection  • Spinal revascularization • Distal perfusion • Spinal or general hypothermia • Spinal drainage • Intrathecal or IV drugs • Papaverin, steroïds , calcium blockers, radical scavengers, barbiturates, naloxone, PGEI, allopurinol, oxygen carriers etc…

  18. Spinal revascularization • Systematic and blind • Never • Selective • Size, topography and backflow of intercostal arteries • Intra-operative monitoring (evoked potentials) • Pre-operative spinal angiography

  19. Distal perfusion • Improves the hemodynamic tolerance to cross-clamping • Reduces the duration of visceral and spinal ischemia

  20. Methods of distal perfusion • Passive shunt • Extra-anatomic bypass • Active shunt • Cardio-pulmonary bypass • Better control of flow • Better oxygen transfer • Better control of temperature • But necessitates high doses of heparin

  21. Hypothermic circulatory arrest • Visceral (and spinal) protection • Avoids difficult or hazardous cross-clamping • Dissection • Redo surgery • Inflammatory aneurysm • Eases the anastomosis by the use of an open technique • But • Bleeding • Sub-optimal myocardial protection through thoracotomy among cardiac patients

  26. Etudes randomisées Caractéristiques communes Type d’études Randomisation du drainage du LCR en chirurgie aortique thoracique. Chirurgie ouverte seulement (≠endovasculaire) Patients ATA à haut risque (type I et II) Technique Drainage LCR par ponction lombaire Autres techniques de protection équivalentes dans les groupes cas et témoin : -CEC atriofémorale -réimplantation de l’ADK Objectif Mesure du taux de parésie/paraplégie postopératoire des membres inférieurs -Crawford (JVS, 1991) -Svensson (Annals of Thoracic Surg, 1998) -Coselli (JVS, 2002)

  27. Etudes randomisées -Résultats-

  28. Indications du drainage Indic drainage: -ATA I,II,III et IV si réimplantation ADK Quel matériel: -Kit drainage externe du LCR. Sophysa (Tuohy 14G, KT multiperforé 60cm, poche de recueuil)

  29. Indications • SSI positive • Spinal artery(ies) arising from aortic segment to be repaired • Adamkiewicz , MDA or SDA • SSI negative • No spinal artery arising from aortic segment • Surgical risk

  30. SSI negative • No CSF drainage • Endovascular or open repair in peace of mind

  31. SSI positive Good surgical risk Ak / MDA or SDA with large territory • Open surgery with reattachment of critical intercostal arteries using the best spinal protection methods available MDA or SDA with small territory • Give objective information to patient • If EVAR preferred, CSF drainage, spinal monitoring etc. • Retrievable stent-graft* ? • Ishimaru et al, J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg, 1998;115:811 • Midorikawa et al. Jpn J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2000;48:761-8

  32. SSI positivePoor surgical risk • Give information to patient • EVAR if feasible • CSF drainage • Careful monitoring of systemic blood pressure • Retrievable stent-graft* under spinal monitoring ? * Midorikawa et al. Jpn J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2000;48:761-8& personal unpublished designs

  33. Personal results with EVAR • 1996-2003 • Systematic ESA • Only 66 TEVAR cases (612 EVAR cases in the same period) • One paraparesis in one hybrid one-stepped elephant trunk under hypothermic circulatory arrest • No paraplegia

  34. Conclusion • Postoperative paraplegia remains a disaster for the patient and a medicolegal concern for surgeons and radiologists • Given the low rates of paraplegia after DTA repair and the small number of patients in the series of TAA repair, efficiency of protective methods is difficult to demonstrate • The availability of SSI using CT renders blind repair of DTA or TAA questionable
