Nationwide survey of Indian cardiac surgeons on the management of acute type A aortic dissection
Management of ATAAD in India shows substantial variation, strongly influenced by surgeon experience and aortic surgery volume. Differences are particularly evident in patients selection, cannulation strategy and distal repair techniques. These findings highlight the need for structured referral systems and the potential benefit of developing high-volume 'aortic centres' in India.
