Inflammation in Aortic Surgery: Postoperative Evolution of Biomarkers According to Pathologies and Segments of the Aorta
This study analyzes the postoperative trends of inflammatory biomarkers in 193 patients who underwent various types of aortic surgery. The research focused on the differing responses across four main surgical interventions: Type A aortic dissection repair, aortic root replacement, combined aortic arch and Frozen elephant trunk procedures, and descending/thoraco-abdominal aortic repair. Findings highlighted that inflammation levels, measured by WBC and CRP, vary significantly depending on the surgery type and aortic segment involved, with some groups showing prolonged inflammation.
