Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the locational impact of a luminal communication on aortic diameter changes and reintervention after surgical repair of acute type I aortic dissection.

Methods: Between 2009 and 2017, 304 patients underwent operation for acute type I aortic dissection. Among them, 93 patients were enrolled. The luminal communications were analysed in segment 1 (the proximal descending thoracic aorta), segment 2 (the distal descending thoracic aorta) and segment 3 (the abdominal aorta). The aortic diameter was measured at the pulmonary artery bifurcation, coeliac axis, maximal abdominal aorta and maximal thoraco-abdominal aorta using serial follow-up computed tomography scans. The linear mixed model was used, and the rate of freedom from reintervention was analysed.

Results: In the adjusted analysis, the initial diameter of the maximal abdominal aorta and the first luminal communication in segment 1 was statistically significant. However, the slope value of the maximal abdominal aorta was smaller than that of the first luminal communication in segment 1 (0.024 vs 0.198). The 3-year freedom from reintervention rate was significantly higher in patients without a luminal communication than in those with an initial luminal communication in segment 1 (96% vs 47%, log rank, P = 0.003).

Conclusions: A luminal communication at the proximal descending thoracic aorta (segment 1) is a significant factor for an increasing aortic diameter and reintervention after surgical repair of acute type I aortic dissection.
