Endovascular versus open surgical repair for complicated chronic Type B aortic dissection
CONCLUSIONS: Due to lack of RCTs or CCTs investigating the effectiveness and safety of TEVAR compared to OSR for patients with complicated CBAD, we are unable to provide any evidence to inform decision-making on the optimal intervention for these patients. High-quality RCTs or CCTs addressing this objective are necessary. However, conducting such studies will be challenging for this life-threatening disease.PMID:34905228 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD012992.pub2
