STABILISE Technique for a Non-A Non-B Acute Aortic Dissection in Marfan Syndrome

Abstract

A 35-year-old man, with a deep pectus excavatum due to a Marfan syndrome treated 9 years before for an acute type A dissection involving only the aortic arch, by a Bentall surgery, was admitted for acute chest pain. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed an acute type non-A non-B dissection extending to the iliac. After 5 days with strict arterial blood pressure management, the patient had recurrent refractory chest pain and a hybrid technique associating full supra-aortic vessels debranching and STABILISE technique during the same procedure was performed. The patient had an uneventful recovery with CT scan showing complete aortic arch aneurysm exclusion.
