The aim of the present study was to determine the long-term status of the native aortic valve after surgical treatment of acute aortic dissection involving the ascending aorta. From 1972 to 1991, 93 patients underwent operation for type I or II aortic dissection. There were 76 men and 17 women. Mean age was 54 +/- 13 years. Eighty patients (86%) had a conservative procedure regarding the aortic root and aortic cusps: 74 had prosthetic replacement of the ascending aorta and 6, complete replacement of the aortic arch. Thirteen patients (14%) had simultaneous replacement of the aortic valve and the ascending aorta. The overall hospital mortality rate was 29% (27/93). The overall actuarial survival rate was 60.2% +/- 5.2%, 49.7% +/- 6.1%, and 35.9% +/- 8.1% at 5, 10, and 15 years, respectively. The survival rates for patients who had an ascending aortic procedure only were 63% +/- 5.5%, 54% +/- 6.5%, and 39% +/- 8.5% at 5, 10, and 15 years, respectively, and for patients who required aortic valve replacement, 45% +/- 14% and 22% +/- 17.5% at 5 and 10 years, respectively. Fifty long-term survivors (94% follow-up) with preservation of the aortic valve and aortic root were studied. Among them, 9 (18%) died within a mean interval of 97 +/- 46 months after operation. Causes of death were ischemic cardiac failure (2), aortic rupture or extension of dissection (4), renal disease (1), stroke (1), and sudden death (1). Forty-one patients had long-term clinical and echocardiographic evaluation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
