Mortality and Re-operation Risk Following Hybrid Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair Versus Open Surgical Arch Replacement at Eight-Year Follow-Up

Abstract

Purpose: Hybrid thoracic endovascular aortic repair is an emerging treatment modality that combines open and endovascular techniques for the treatment of aortic arch disease. However, there has been limited studies comparing hybrid percutaneous repair versus open surgical aortic arch replacement at eight-year follow-up. This retrospective study aimed to compare hybrid endovascular repair with open surgery to assess early and mid-term outcomes in patients with aortic arch disease.
