Özet
Acute type A aortic dissection is a life-threatening disease associated with high morbidity and mortality that requires urgent surgical intervention. Hemodilution is inevitable in cardiac operations performed with cardiopulmonary bypass, which leads to nadir hematocrit levels. Studies have shown that nadir hematocrit levels are associated with poor postoperative outcomes. The management strategy of intraoperative anemia in these operations is still controversial. Should we follow the patients with intraoperative low hematocrit values or should we transfuse them? In addition to intraoperative nadir hematocrit, cannulation strategies play an important role in early postoperative outcomes after aortic dissection surgery.
