Hybrid prosthesis in frozen elephant trunk procedures for hereditary thoracic aortic diseases: a 14-year single-aortic center experience
Hybrid stent graft prostheses can be safely implanted with the FET technique in elective and acute HTAD patients with arch and proximal descending aortic disease. Our single-center short- and mid-term outcomes are encouraging, but long-term durability and efficacy are not yet established. This warrants multi-center studies with extended follow-up.
