Open Repair of Descending and Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysms and Dissections in Patients Aged Younger Than 60 Years: Superior to Endovascular Repair? ORIGINAL ARTICLES: ADULT CARDIAC
Conclusions Although direct comparison with stent grafting is limited by the diversity of patients and indications in published reports, our results suggest that open repair should be the modality of choice. Early mortality and neurologic complication rates are similar, if not superior, to endovascular repair for descending aortic and TAAAs. Open repair has proven durability and a very low rate of required reintervention, in contrast with endovascular repair.
