Abstract

Background: Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) has substantially decreased the mortality and major complications from aortic surgery. However, neurological complications such as spinal cord ischemia may still occur after TEVAR. S-100 is a biomarker of central nervous system injury, and oxidant injury plays an important role in neurological injury. In this pilot study, we examined the trends of S-100 and antioxidant capacity in the CSF during and after TEVAR.

Methods: We recruited 10 patients who underwent elective TEVAR. CSF samples were collected through a lumbar catheter at the following time points: before the start of surgery (0) and immediately (1) and 24 (2) and 48 hours (3) after the deployment of the aortic stent. S-100 and CSF antioxidant capacity were analyzed with the use of commercially available kits.

Results: We observed that the level of S-100 in all of the subjects at 24 hours after the deployment of the aortic stent (2) increased. However, the levels of S-100 at 1 and 3 were comparable to the baseline value. The antioxidant capacity remained unchanged. No patient had a clinical neurologic complication.

Conclusions: Our observations may indicate biochemical/subclinical central nervous system injury attributable to the deployment of the aortic stent.
