  • Title: Total Aortic Repair for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection Complicated by Malperfusion or Symptomatic Branch Vessel Malalignment.
    Author: Perera NK, Galvin SD, Brooks M, Seevanayagam S, Matalanis G.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2016 Jun; 101(6):2398-400. PubMed ID: 27211962.
    Abstract:
    Malperfusion or persistent perfusion of the false lumen with acute type A aortic dissections is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. We describe our experience with total aortic repair in patients with acute type A dissection with recurrent or ongoing branch ischemia, true lumen collapse, or rapid dilatation of a false lumen after initial surgical repair.
