Aortopathies

Review article and meta-analysis comparing different cerebral protection techniques in aortic arch surgery

A retrospective study examining the impact on morbidity and mortality of the time elapsed from symptom onset to surgical intervention in patients with acute type A aortic dissection complicated by malperfusion of one or more regions.

Retrospective study involving 91 patients with uncomplicated type B aortic dissection. Comparison of patients initially managed with medical treatment, assessing the rate, indications, and characteristics of patients who required invasive procedures during follow-up against those who continued with optimal medical treatment.

A retrospective analysis of the GREAT registry comparing short- and medium-term results of endovascular treatment in acute type B aortic dissection complicated with uncomplicated dissection.

This study aimed to evaluate if, in patients undergoing surgery following DeBakey Type I aortic dissection, the maximum area of the false lumen in the distal thoracic aorta predicts late aortic dilation and the need for reintervention.

Comparative study of the short- and mid-term outcomes in patients over 75 years with acute type A intramural hematoma (IMH-A) managed conservatively or treated surgically.

This study, conducted at a specialized aortic surgery center, examines the short- and long-term outcomes of surgical repair for type A aortic dissection based on whether a conservative or more extensive repair strategy was chosen.

A multicenter randomized study evaluating the efficacy of antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) through innominate artery cannulation compared to axillary artery during hypothermic circulatory arrest in elective proximal aortic arch surgery.

Five year outcomes of the American Registry in patients with uncomplicated acute type B aortic dissection treated within the first 30 days with TEVAR vs. conservative management
