Endovascular Versus Open Surgical Repair in Retrograde Type A Dissection and Intramural Haematoma: A Study-Level Meta-Analysis
This meta-analysis synthesizes current evidence for the use of TEVAR in retrograde type A IMH/dissection and use available information on open surgery as a reference. Our results suggested that TEVAR may be a safe and feasible alternative, with satisfactory short-term and long-term outcomes. Further large-scale studies are needed to clarify TEVAR's role and its efficacy against open surgery.
