Total aortic arch replacement versus proximal aortic repair for acute type a aortic dissection: A single-center 30-year experience
In-hospital mortality after acute type A aortic dissection decreased over time despite the implementation of an aggressive approach to the dissected aortic arch. Long-term survival appears favorable after total arch replacement, but remains contingent on early postoperative survival. The surgical approach should be based on the patient's clinical presentation, while considering total arch replacement in patients at risk of aortic arch reinterventions.
