The current management of acute complicated type B aortic dissection is a combination of medical therapy and endovascular repair. Endovascular repair is not feasible when the dissection extends into the aortic arch. We describe 3 patients with acute type B aortic dissection complicated by retrograde arch extension and visceral malperfusion who were successfully treated with a total arch replacement and frozen elephant trunk.
