Abstract:
:It is estimated that 20% to 40% of the patients who survive the acute phase of aortic dissection will develop significant aneurysmal dilatation of the descending thoracic or thoracoabdominal aorta. Aortic dissection has long been considered a risk factor for mortality and neurologic deficit following surgical repair of the descending thoracic and/or thoracoabdominal aorta. In this article we review the surgical approach to patients with aortic dissection and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms and discuss the impact of adjuncts on survival and neurologic outcome.
