Thoracic aortic aneurysms in octogenarians: the results of open surgical repair using hypothermic circulatory arrest with antegrade selective cerebral perfusion.
Conclusion: The early and late outcomes after thoracic aortic surgery at our hospital using HCA with ASCP in octogenarians are acceptable. The operations are performed with an acceptable operative risk, even under emergency situations, including acute aortic dissection. PMID: 24614390 [PubMed - in process]

Outcomes of Open Repair for Chronic Descending Thoracic Aortic Dissection
Conclusions Open repairs of chronic descending thoracic aortic aneurysm dissections can be performed with respectable morbidity and mortality. Neurologic deficit remains low with the use of adjuncts, and early deaths are directly related to preoperative renal status. Reintervention on the involved aortic segment is low. These results allow comparisons with endovascular repair for chronic aortic dissection.

Hemiarch Reconstruction Vs Clamped Aortic Anastomosis for Concomitant Ascending Aortic Aneurysm
Conclusions Hemiarch replacement using DHCA with RCP does not increase the risk of operative complications compared to a normothermic, clamped-distal aortic anastomosis, and therefore its use should not be limited when planning complex multi-procedural reconstructions during elective ascending thoracic aortic replacement with concomitant cardiac surgery.
