腹主动脉瘤是一种常见的病因不明的主动脉疾病,发病隐匿,具有较高的致残率和死亡率,近年来发病率呈明显上升趋势。年龄增高是腹主动脉瘤最主要的危险因素,65岁以上男性中发病率高达8%。 2021年10月28日,《新英格兰医学杂志》(NEJM)在临床实践栏目发表《腹主动脉瘤的治疗》(Schanzer A, Oderich GS. N Engl J Med 2021;385:1690-8),全面探讨了腹主动脉瘤手术治疗的时机、治疗与监测以及指导治疗策略选择的证据。我们在此简介其主要内容。 腹主动脉瘤的定义为主动脉直径>3 cm。腹主动脉瘤的易感因素包括高龄、家族史、既往或当前吸烟、高胆固醇血症和高血压;糖尿病与患病风险降低相关。腹主动脉瘤造成的主要危险是动脉瘤破裂和患者出血死亡风险。因此,治疗目标是在动脉瘤破裂前将其修复。虽然有几方面因素会影响修复术的时机和类型,但动脉瘤破裂的最重要预测因素是动脉瘤直径,动脉瘤越大,破裂风险越大。在对不适合手术治疗的腹主动脉瘤患者进行的前瞻性观察性研究中,动脉瘤直径5.0~5.9 cm的男性患者的破裂风险为每年1%,动脉瘤直径≥6 cm的男性患者的破裂风险为每年14.1%;女性患者的相应分析分别为3.9%和22.3%。 策略和证据 修复术时机 随机试验表明,对于直径<5.5cm的腹主动脉瘤,手术与密切监测相比并无生存优势,这支持以下观点:这一直径是修复术的适当阈值,对直径<5.5 cm的动脉瘤进行监测是安全的并且符合成本效益。虽然在这些试验中,监测组的干预阈值也包括动脉瘤快速生长(定义为生长速度>每年1 cm),但目前并无严格数据支持根据快速生长行修复术。考虑到女性的主动脉本身较小,并且女性的小腹主动脉瘤破裂率较高,因此大多数专家和指南建议对女性患者采用较小的修复术阈值(直径5.0 cm)。 监测和治疗 对于直径3.0~3.9 cm的小腹主动脉瘤患者,应通过每3年一次的双功能超声检查进行影像学监测随访;对于直径4.0~4.9 cm的动脉瘤患者,应每年进行一次随访;对于直径≥5.0 cm的动脉瘤患者,应每6个月进行一次随访。建议患者戒烟,以降低动脉瘤生长和破裂风险。他汀类药物、β受体阻滞剂和其他降压药可能降低心血管风险,但这些药物并未被证明可减缓动脉瘤生长,因此不应为了这一目的开出上述药物。 对于动脉瘤达到一定直径,需要行修复术的患者,治疗方式包括开放式修复术或主动脉瘤腔内修复术(EVAR)。开放式修复术需要做经腹中线切口或腹膜后切口,暴露出主动脉和髂动脉,并将这些动脉钳闭。采用开放式修复术时,动脉瘤节段被直管型或分叉型假体取代。采用EVAR时,动脉瘤保持原样,通过导管置入支架,使血流改变路径,避开瘤腔,因此无需暂时钳闭主动脉(图1)。 图1. 肾动脉下腹主动脉瘤的腔内修复术 多数情况下,将一个分叉型模块化支架锚定在肾动脉下方一段正常主动脉中,并延伸入两侧一段正常髂总动脉内。行EVAR要求患者的解剖结构适合,包括足够的密封区,以便支架与动脉壁对接密封。其他要求包括股动脉和髂动脉直径足够,以及无血管转角过度或动脉粥样硬化碎片严重等情况。 1991年发明EVAR以来,许多医疗机构已广泛采用EVAR,将其作为解剖结构适合的患者的首选治疗方案,而开放式修复术仅用于解剖结构不适合EVAR的患者。 指导治疗策略选择的证据 迄今比较择期开放式修复术结局与EVAR结局的三项最大规模随机、对照试验获得了一致结果。三项试验均表明,EVAR的30日发病率和死亡率均显著低于开放式修复术(0.5%~1.7% vs. 3.0%~4.7%)。接受EVAR治疗的患者恢复速度较快。然而,EVAR的短期生存优势在随访期间减小;在生存超过2~3年的患者中,两种手术方式的生存率相似,并且8~10年随访期间的生存率仍相似。EVAR后的再次干预率高于开放式修复术后,但随访期间的再次干预大多通过导管技术实施。总体而言,EVAR费用高于开放式手术费用。 美国的临床经验数据支持这些试验的结果。一项倾向评分匹配分析纳入了在2001~2004年接受腹主动脉瘤修复术的超过44,000名Medicare受益人,结果表明EVAR和开放式修复术后的30日死亡率分别为1.2%和4.8%(P<0.001)。5年随访时,两组的全因死亡率相似,生存曲线在3年时交汇。在接受EVAR治疗的患者中,与修复术相关的再次干预率较高(9.0% vs. 1.7%;P<0.001)。然而,在接受开放式修复术的患者中,因伤口相关或开腹术相关并发症(如切口疝或肠梗阻)接受手术的可能性较大(9.7% vs. 4.1%;P<0.001)。 选择修复策略时应遵循共同决策原则,且应考虑以下因素:患者的解剖结构是否适合,手术风险,以及患者是否愿意终身每年接受影像学随访。多项指南建议患者在EVAR后终身接受影像学随访,目的是发现和纠正与主动脉装置或其他装置相关的并发症,如瘤腔内持续血流(如内漏)或残留的主动脉瘤腔扩大。 术后影像学监测的目的是发现严重并发症,避免患者因动脉瘤破裂而死亡。影像学检查通常包括EVAR后最初几个月的计算机断层扫描(CT)血管造影,以及之后每年的双功能超声检查。对于某些患者,超声检查在技术上可能不可行(如体型较大患者),这种情况可能需要CT血管造影或磁共振血管造影。 根据记录,有5.4%的患者在EVAR后发生腹主动脉瘤破裂。据报道,患者在早期、中期和长期随访时均对再次干预有需求,目的是使动脉瘤始终保持在血液循环之外,以及防止迟发性动脉瘤破裂,对再次干预的需求并未随着时间推移趋于平稳。因此,患者需要终身接受随访。开放式修复术的情况则不同,由于修复效果更为持久,并且对再次干预的需求较少,因此终身随访并不是很重要。患者接受开放式修复术后,大多数血管外科医师会随访至患者完全恢复术前基线状态。此后,患者通常只在出现新问题时才就诊,因为开放式修复术后破裂的情况极为罕见。 不确定领域 目前尚不明确为何各项试验均表明,EVAR相对于开放式修复术的早期生存优势在2~3年之后未能维持。可能的原因包括基础心血管风险,对后续治疗建议的依从性差;与保持原样的动脉瘤相关的高炎症状态持续存在,进而导致心血管事件;影像学检查显示在无内漏的情况下,持续存在瘤腔压力增加;以及装置失功。 虽然支架疲劳是一部分装置失功的原因,但另有许多装置失功的原因是支架置入不当,即支架被置入了不符合支架放置要求,解剖结构不适合置入支架的患者体内。据报道,在接受EVAR的患者中,有18%~63%的解剖结构不理想,且与较差结局明确相关。如果该技术广泛应用于解剖结构不理想患者的情况继续增多,短期益处将被以下几方面抵消:治疗失败率提高,费用高昂的再次干预和随访期间动脉瘤随时破裂的可能性。 新的腔内修复技术正不断发展,以扩大EVAR的适用范围,使其也可以应用于解剖结构不适合当前市售装置(置于肾动脉以下)的患者。这些技术需要通过特殊设计的,带有纤维开口(强化开窗)或侧臂(定向分支)的支架与主动脉侧支(如肾动脉和肠系膜动脉)相连。置入主动脉支架后,在开窗或分支与每条目标血管之间放置桥接支架。开窗型和分支型支架主动脉腔内修复术(从主动脉弓到内脏节段,再到髂动脉)已被世界各地的复杂动脉瘤大型专科治疗中心采用。一般而言,对于主动脉瘤(如近肾腹主动脉瘤)主要位于腹部的患者,首选强化开窗型支架(图2A),而对于动脉瘤延伸至胸腔的患者,首选分支型支架(图2B)。 图2. 复杂胸腹主动脉瘤的腔内修复术 图中显示了复杂胸腹主动脉瘤的开窗(图A)和分支(图B)腔内修复术 这些复杂主动脉瘤的开放式修复术在技术上难度更大,需要在术中暴露更大范围,而且主动脉钳闭造成的终末器官缺血时间也更长。因此,相关发病率和死亡率显著高于肾下腹主动脉瘤修复术。据我们所知,目前尚无在复杂主动脉瘤患者中比较开放式修复术和FB-EVAR的随机试验。单中心和多中心前瞻性观察性研究表明,在接受FB-EVAR治疗的患者中,并发症发生率和死亡率均低于开放式修复术历史队列的数据。例如,根据美国主动脉研究联盟(U.S. Aortic Research Consortium)的一项研究,在因近肾腹主动脉瘤或胸腹主动脉瘤接受FB-EVAR治疗的893例患者中,30日死亡率为1.1%,而在手术量大的医疗中心开展,评估胸腹动脉瘤开放式修复术的多项大规模、单中心研究中,30日死亡率为7%~16%。 指南 美国血管外科学会(Societyfor Vascular Surgery,SVS)和欧洲血管外科学会(EuropeanSociety for Vascular Surgery,ESVS)已发布腹主动脉瘤治疗指南。两份指南均为直径≥5.5 cm梭状动脉瘤的择期修复术提出了2级(弱)建议,证据质量为B级(中,SVS)或C级(低,ESVS)。鉴于女性的主动脉本身较小,上述学会为女性直径≥5.0 cm梭状动脉瘤的择期修复术提出了2级(弱)建议,证据质量为B级(中,SVS)或C级(低,ESVS)。虽然指南未就EVAR相对于开放式修复术的优势提出建议,但ESVS指南建议,对于大多数解剖结构适合并且达到一定预期寿命(如>2年)的患者,在EVAR和开放式修复术之间首选EVAR。两项指南均指出,目前并无经证实可减缓动脉瘤扩大速度的药物疗法。 由于目前并无随机试验数据说明对患者一级亲属进行腹主动脉瘤筛查的结局和成本效益,因此SVS和ESVS指南均建议考虑对一级亲属进行一次超声筛查(证据质量,C级[低];建议,2级[弱]),但两个学会建议的筛查年龄不同(分别为65岁和50岁)。与SVS指南一致。美国预防服务工作组(U.S.Preventive Services Task Force)为男性提出的最新筛查建议与上述指南一致,但由于缺乏充分数据,该工作组不建议对一级亲属患腹主动脉瘤的女性进行筛查。 附:ESVS2019腹部主髂动脉瘤指南自译版Centres performing aortic surgery are recommended to enter cases in a validated prospective registry to allow for

for Vascular Surgery implementationof guidelines in abdominal aortic aneurysms: preoperative surveillance and threshold for repair Rae S. Rokosh, Winona W. Wu, Mark K.Eskandari, and Elliot L. Chaikof 1. 无症状的真性腹主动脉瘤的干预仍依据超声,CTA或MRI上测量到的主动脉最大外径:
2. 直径<4.0cm的无症状真性AAA每年破裂的风险几乎可以忽略不计; 3. Cochrane上一项对UKSAT (UK small aneurysm trial),ADAM (aneurysm detection and management study),CAESAR (comparison of surveillance vs aortic endografting for small aneurysm repair)和PIVOTAL (positive impact of endovascular options for treating aneurysm early)研究的分析显示无症状小AAA(4.0-5.4cm)立即进行干预的获益不明显[2] 4. 普遍认为,对于女性最大径达到5cm,对于男性最大径达到5.5cm时,AAA年破裂的风险超过择期手术相关的围手术期风险; 5. 根据AAA直径估计的年破裂风险如下表[3,4](女性患者适用性较差): 6. 对于无症状患者推荐采用超声(更倾向于超声)或CT进行监测,术前监测的频率如下表: 7. AAA修复的指证[5]:
8. 争议和未来的方向: 传统最大径标准的陷阱:
最近的证据提示:在女性中,动脉瘤直径除以体表面积相比单纯动脉瘤直径,在破裂风险方面更有预测价值[7]
SVS腹主动脉瘤指南(二):治疗原则血管新青年 2021-07-11 08:30 Society for Vascular Surgery implementation of clinical practice guidelines for patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm: Repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm Rae S. Rokosh, Benjamin W. Starnes, andElliot L. Chaikof 1. 腹主动脉瘤(AAA)的最佳干预时间点依据临床表现和动脉瘤状态:
2. AAA择期手术究竟腔内治疗还是开放手术应充分考虑以下几点后个体化选择:
3. 如果解剖学适合,破裂AAA的治疗首选EVAR(1C级证据),建议从急诊入院至干预(door-to-intervention)的时间不超过90分钟[1]。 4. 当主动脉的解剖超出现有的商品化EVAR器械IFU时,或者预期寿命高于10-15年时,应当考虑开放手术[2]。 5. 观察性研究显示相比开放手术,破裂AAA患者接受EVAR手术的早中期生存获益更明显,但是需要当心这是相关性而非因果关系[3]。 6. 破裂AAA患者腔内治疗的围手术期生存获益尚未被RCT证实。 7. 相比开放手术,AAA择期EVAR手术能够降低死亡率和并发症发生率,更快地康复。但是,远期再干预的发生率更高,且远期生存获益无明显差异[4]。 8. 破裂AAA急救处理流程的有效实施能够降低30天死亡率,具体策略见下图[5]: 9. 医疗卫生系统应当考虑建立一个破裂AAA急诊治疗的结构化、多学科、分级诊疗制度,如果没有转运禁忌症,应当快速转运至一个可行EVAR手术的医疗机构。 10. 目前,已有几个评分系统声称能够准确地预测破裂AAA的30天死亡率[6]。VSGNNE(VascularStudy Group of Northern New England)风险评估表在预测AAA择期EVAR术后院内死亡方面已经得到了外部验证。未来,VSGNNE风险评估表应作为术前常规,以促进病人为中心的沟通和共同决策,尤其是那些计算下来高死亡风险并且预期寿命较短的患者[7]。 SVS腹主动脉瘤指南(三):内漏管理血管新青年 2021-07-18 10:30 Society for Vascular Surgery implementationof clinical practice guidelines for patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm:endoleak management Rae S. Rokosh, Winona W. Wu, Ronald L. Dalman, andElliot L. Chaiko 1. 内漏是指EVAR术后瘤腔内存在持续血流灌入。虽然有些内漏能够自发缓解或是不导致瘤腔扩张,但仍有部分内漏需二次干预以预防瘤腔扩张、破裂。而干预的指证主要依据内漏的类型以及相关的动脉瘤破裂风险。具体的内漏分型见下图: 2. SVS临床指南推荐[1]:
3. I型和III型内漏导致瘤腔直接暴露在系统血压下,破裂的风险较高[2]。 4. EVAR术后即刻造影,II型内漏发生的比例≤25%
5. 一部分瘤腔扩张的患者,看似是II型内漏,但实际上是隐蔽的I型或III型内漏动脉血流入分支血管中误以为是II型。
6. 目前,II型内漏究竟是一个良性病程还是会导致远期的动脉瘤相关并发症尚存在争议,其最佳随访方案和治疗策略仍不清楚。 7. 虽然目前的指南推荐:II型内漏如果出现症状或存在明显瘤腔扩张,则需要及时干预,但是,最近的证据显示接受治疗的II型内漏患者生存或动脉瘤相关的结局都没有明显改善[7,8]。 8. 持续的II型内漏很常见,治疗策略建议如下[4,9]:
9. 即使是这样一个渐进性的治疗策略,术后II型内漏的复发率仍高达60%[9]。 10. 目前,比较内漏不同治疗方式的证据较少,虽然腔内治疗的失败率较高,但不代表它不是最佳的治疗方式。 11. II型内漏以及相关瘤腔扩张的最佳单一或联合序贯腔内治疗方式需要前瞻性RCT证实。两个系统评价已经发现相比经动脉栓塞术,经腰栓塞有着更高的临床成功率[4,10]。 12. 在II型内漏高风险患者中,需要前瞻性RCT证实有选择地进行预防性主动脉分支栓塞和瘤腔栓塞的获益。近期有两个小样本RCT在EVAR术后II型内漏高危患者中,评估一期瘤腔栓塞[11]和肠系膜下动脉栓塞[12],早期结果已经显现出一期栓塞能够降低II型内漏,提高瘤腔体积缩小的比例。 备注:本指南是SVS制定,适用于美国临床实践的操作指南,仅供参考,在具体临床工作中,仍需根据国内各家医院自身的情况,患者病情制定个体化的治疗方案。 参考文献见公众号:血管新青年中国心胸医学影像论坛-带您轻松掌握腹主动脉瘤 CTA 评估要点腹主动脉瘤是腹主动脉的异常扩张,它的扩张会带来主动脉破裂的风险,一旦破裂十分凶险,死亡率很高。传统的开放式手术创伤较大,需要全麻,恢复时间较长,而动脉瘤腔内修复术(Aneurysm Endovascular Aneurysm Repair, EVAR)具有创伤小、局麻、恢复快的特点。 影像医生阅读腹主动脉 CTA(Computed tomography angiography)在术前评估、术后随访有着至关重要的作用。本文介绍腹主动脉瘤 CTA 术前评估要点。 背景知识 1. 腹主动脉瘤的定义 异常扩张的主动脉直径超过近端正常主动脉 50%,或者扩张超过 3 cm。 2. 腹主动脉瘤的直径与破裂风险的关系 3. 腹主动脉瘤腔内治疗的适应证
腹主动脉瘤分类 1. 按受累部位,分为 3 类: (1)肾动脉上型(Suprarenal aortic aneurysm):动脉瘤累及肾动脉上方。
(2)肾动脉旁型(Juxtarenal aortic aneurysm):动脉瘤上缘至肾动脉距离<1 cm。
(3)肾动脉下型(Infrarenal aortic aneurysm): 动脉瘤上缘至肾动脉距离 ≥ 1 cm。
肾动脉下方至瘤体上方的区域为支架的「着陆区」(landing zone),此区至关重要。 2. 按照髂动脉是否受累,分为 2 类: (1)髂动脉受累型。
(2)髂动脉未受累型。
读片要点 影像科医生阅读腹主动脉 CTA 诊断腹主动脉瘤时,需要注意三大方面:
1. 主动脉颈的评估 (1)长度:这是最重要的径线,当动脉瘤体上缘距离肾动脉水平下缘 ≥ 1.5 cm 时,较易进行腔内修复。
(2)角度:是指肾动脉水平上方的主动脉与下方的主动脉的夹角,>150°时表示较平直,腔内修复术易进行。
(3)动脉颈的粥样硬化情况,当钙化斑块及粥样斑块>50% 时,为重度粥样硬化;25%~50% 为中度,<25% 为轻度。
(4)主动脉颈的形态:平直型较易进行腔内修复,锥形和倒锥型较难。
2. 动脉瘤体的评估 (1)动脉瘤弯曲指数(Aortic Aneurysm Tortuosity Index):是指从肾动脉下方沿管腔表面至动脉分叉处的曲线 L1 与直线 L2 的长度比,比值<1.2 时代表较平直,易进行腔内修复术。
(2)动脉瘤角度(Aortic Aneurysm Angle):此角度越小,腔内修复术越困难。
(3)动脉瘤分支血管(Aneurysm Branch Vessels):包括副肾动脉、腰动脉、肠系膜下动脉,仔细评估是否有侧枝血管,如:有重要的副肾动脉,可行副肾动脉开窗术,如累及肠系膜下动脉,覆膜支架盖住肠系膜下动脉前,应预先评估及处理肠系膜上动脉,防止肠缺血坏死。
3. 髂动脉的评估 (1)髂总动脉受累情况
(2)髂总动脉长度:髂总动脉总长度>3 cm 时,支架可以不延伸至髂外动脉。
(3)髂总动脉的直径和钙化情况:钙化较重或管腔较细时,腔内修复术困难。
(4)髂总动脉的弯曲指数,角度。 弯曲指数<1.25 时,手术较易;>1.6 时,手术较难。 角度越大,表示越平直,手术较容易。
总结 经过学习,我们知道了影像科医生阅读腹主动脉 CTA 时,除了测量动脉瘤的直径,还需要注意的三大方面:主动脉颈(指动脉瘤上方的主动脉)(Aortic neck)、动脉瘤体(Aortic aneurysm)、动脉瘤下方的髂动脉(Iliac artery)。只有综合考虑各个径线,才能对腹主动脉瘤有良好的综合评估,顺利指导腔内修复术的进行。 版权信息 内容来源:《NEJM医学前沿》、厦门大学附属心血管病医院血管外、 心胸医学影像联盟、血管新青年公众号。仅供个人学习使用。若有侵权,请联系删除。 |
