J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino). 2022 May 27. doi: 10.23736/S0021-9509.22.12376-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe treatment of complex aortic arch disease continues to be among the most demanding cardiovascular operations, with a considerable risk of death and stroke. Since January 1990, our single-practice service has performed over 3,000 repairs of the aortic arch. Our aim is to describe the progression of our technical approach to open aortic arch repair.
