Cerebral protection using deep hypothermic circulatory arrest versus retrograde cerebral perfusion for aortic hemiarch reconstruction
ConclusionsIn treating both elective and acute ascending aortic pathologies with hemiarch reconstruction, both DHCA alone or in combination with RCP yield comparable results.

The learning curve effect on outcomes with frozen elephant trunk technique for extensive thoracic aorta disease
ConclusionThe learning curve with the FET procedure had a significant impact on hospital mortality and midterm survival over the follow ‐up period, albeit did not influence the freedom from reintervention on the downstream aorta.

Endovascular Repair of Ascending Aortic Disease in High-Risk Patients Yields Favorable Outcome
ConclusionsAscending aortic stent placement for ascending aortic disease is feasible and is associated with favorable aortic remodeling. Despite persistent perfusion to the false lumen in a subset of patients, there is minimal aortic dilation at short-term follow-up with excellent survival.

A Serious Diagnosis Lacking Common Symptoms
​BY JENNIFER TUONG; IVAN KHARCHENKO; JEAN LUC AGARD; & AHMED RAZIUDDIN, MDA 65-year-old man who had HIV well-controlled with highly active antiretroviral therapy, hypertension, sciatica, and restless leg syndrome presented to the emergency department with left leg pain. He also had had chemotherapy and radiation for anal cancer. The patient said the pain had started 45 minutes earlier when he was sitting on the toilet.He described the pain as sore in quality and 10/10 on the pain scale. He reported that it had started in his lower back and radiated to his left leg. He said he had had no trauma or weakness to the regi...

Early Clinical Outcomes of Hybrid Arch Frozen Elephant Trunk Repair with the Thoraflex Hybrid Graft
ConclusionsHybrid aortic arch and FET repair with the Thoraflex hybrid graft appears to be associated with good clinical outcomes, despite being early in the learning curve with this graft. Further investigation with this device is warranted to establish its role within the variations of hybrid arch repair.

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

Rethinking the Paradigm: Modern Approach to Proximal Aortic Reconstruction Demonstrates Excellent Outcomes.
CONCLUSION: Elective surgery for aneurysm of the proximal aorta is safe, reproducible, and is associated with outcomes that are superior to those seen in an acute aortic syndrome. It may be appropriate to offer surgery to younger patients with proximal aortic aneurysms at smaller diameters, even if their aortic dimensions do not yet meet traditional guidelines for surgical intervention.

Branched Endovascular Therapy of the Distal Aortic  Arch: Preliminary Results of the Feasibility Multicenter Trial of the Gore Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis
Conclusions Total endovascular repair of distal zone 2 arch aortic aneurysms can be achieved with a novel branched arch endograft. Future studies will evaluate the feasibility of this approach for aneurysms encompassing the brachiocephalic trunk and left carotid artery.
