Sumario:BACKGROUND: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support may be considered to reduce mortality but survival and clinical outcomes are uncertain after Stanford type A Aortic dissection (TAAD). We analyzed the data of TAAD patients with postoperative ECMO support in our institution to investigate clinical outcomes. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, all clinical data of TAAD patients with postoperative ECMO support from January 2013 to October 2019 in our institution were harvested. Cases with redo or incomplete records were excluded. RESULTS: 22 cases were enrolled, 18 male and 4 female. The mean age was52.85±10.91 years. 20 patients underwent VA-ECMO treatment and 2 patients received VV-ECMO support. The support time was92.54±78.71 hours. 9 patients were successfully weaned from ECMO. 30-day in-hospital survival rate was 27.27 % (6/22). The follow-up duration is from 5 to 74 months. The median follow-up time is 35 months. Only four patients were still alive at the end of the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: The mortality of TAAD patients with postoperativesevere circulatory and respiratory dysfunctions is high. ECMO would be considered as a valuable contribution to save lives. But more experience needs to be accumulated to improve clinical outcome.
