Contemporary Management of Type B Aortic Dissection in the Endovascular Era.
Authors: Bannazadeh M, Tadros RO, McKinsey J, Chander R, Marin ML, Faries PL Abstract Aortic dissection (AD) is one of the most common catastrophic pathologies affecting the aorta. Anatomic classification is based on the origin of entry tear and its extension. Type A dissections originate in the ascending aorta, whereas the entry tear in Type B dissections starts distal to the left subclavian artery. The patients with aortic dissection who manifest complications such as rupture, malperfusion, aneurysmal degeneration, and intractable pain are classified as complicated AD. Risk factors for developing aortic dissectio...

Endovascular Solutions for Aortic Arch Diseases: Total and Hybrid
Surg Technol Int. 2021 May 17;38:sti38/1415. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlthough the endovascular approach is the therapeutic option of choice for thoracic and abdominal aortic diseases, open surgery is still the treatment of choice for aortic arch diseases. While open surgical repair remains the gold standard treatment for complete aortic arch replacement, it continues to be burdened by high mortality and neurologic complications, especially for patients who require redo surgery. Therefore, in the era of endovascular surgery, it is not surprising that hybrid operating rooms, new technologies, and new approaches are str...
