Abstract

Surgical repair of aortic arch pathology is complex and associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Alternative approaches have been developed to reduce these risks, including the use of thoracic stent-grafts with fenestrations or in combination with bypass procedures to maintain supra-aortic trunk blood flow. Branched stent-grafts are a novel approach to treat aortic arch pathology. Consecutive patients with aortic arch disease presenting to a single university hospital vascular centre were considered for branched stent-graft repair (October 2010 to January 2017). Patients were assessed in a multidisciplinary setting including a cardiologist, cardiac surgeon and vascular surgeon. All patients were considered prohibitively high risk for standard open surgical repair. The study used reporting standards for endovascular aortic repair and PROCESS (Preferred Reporting of Case Series in Surgery) guidelines. Some 30 patients (25 men) underwent attempted branch stent-graft repair. Mean age was 68 (range 37-84) years. Eighteen patients had chronic aortic dissection, 11 patients had an aneurysm and one had a penetrating ulcer. Fourteen patients had disease in aortic arch zone 0, six in zone 1 and ten in zone 2. Twenty-five pati...Continue Reading
