Left Subclavian Artery Fenestration: A Novel Treatment Strategy for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection

Conclusions The LSA fenestration technique during total arch replacement combined with stented elephant trunk implantation for acute type A aortic dissection is reliable and effective for patients who have no dissection at the LSA. Furthermore, because the simplified surgical procedure largely shortens the time of operation, it effectively improves the patient’s prognosis.
