简要总结
There are both common and individual characteristics in patients with type B aortic dissection. Currently, for all subtypes of acute type B dissection, proximal endovascular repair is mostly performed during the subacute phase, while the distal dissection of the descending aorta is often managed with a "watch and wait" strategy. However, such a uniform approach carries potential risks, including imprecise indications, inappropriate timing, and uncertain prognosis. Our research team has previously established a comprehensive database and imaging repository of nearly 10,000 cases of type B dissection. Building upon existing subtypes-such as acute complicated, uncomplicated, penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer, and intramural hematoma-we have further explored refined classifications, including acute high-risk types and localized contrast enhancement of the aortic wall. For patients with different subtypes and at different stages of dissection-such as hyperacute, acute, or subacute-it is critical to develop individualized treatment strategies. These may include optimal medical therapy, isolated proximal endovascular repair, or combined proximal repair with distal bare stent implantation. Therefore, a large-scale clinical study is urgently needed to identify the optimal timing and approach for intervention based on refined classification schemes, and to establish personalized, stratified treatment strategies for different patient groups.
This project aims to conduct a real-world, prospective, multicenter, parallel-controlled study to compare outcomes between isolated proximal endovascular repair and combined proximal repair with distal bare stent implantation in patients with acute complicated or high-risk type B aortic dissection. The goal is to determine the most effective surgical approach for improving distal perfusion and promoting favorable aortic remodeling, thereby guiding treatment decision-making.

结局指标
主要结局
30-day Postoperative Positive Remodeling Rate of the Descending Thoracic Aorta
时间窗: 30 days
(Number of subjects with positive remodeling of the descending thoracic aorta at the 30-day postoperative visit / Total number of subjects who completed the 30-day postoperative visit) × 100%
12-month Postoperative Degree of Positive Remodeling of the Descending Thoracic Aorta
时间窗: 12 months
Positive aortic remodeling is defined as meeting at least one of the following criteria: A reduction in the maximum diameter or volume of the false lumen, accompanied by either a decrease or an increase of less than 5 mm in the total aortic diameter or volume; An increase in the maximum diameter or volume of the true lumen, accompanied by either a decrease or an increase of less than 5 mm in the total aortic diameter or volume; A reduction in the maximum aortic diameter (along with changes in the diameters of both the true and false lumens). Formula for calculating the degree of positive remodeling of the descending thoracic aorta at 12 months postoperatively: (Maximum true lumen diameter of the descending thoracic aorta at 12 months post-op / Maximum total lumen diameter at 12 months post-op) - (Preoperative maximum true lumen diameter / Preoperative maximum total lumen diameter of the descending thoracic aorta)
