Frozen Elephant Trunk for Acute Type B Dissection Involving the Distal Arch in the Hybrid Repair Era.
CONCLUSIONS: Open repair of ATBAD with distal aortic arch involvement using the FET procedure with LSCA-LCCA transposition obtained satisfactory outcomes. Avoidance of complications using hybrid repair, good postoperative recovery, and a low prevalence of late reintervention were achieved. The satisfactory results favored this technique for this lesion in this hybrid repair era. PMID: 29750927 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
