Long-term comparison of aortic arch replacement with or without elephant trunk procedure via retrograde cerebral perfusion for aortic arch dissection

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the duration of retrograde cerebral perfusion (RCP) in patients with aortic arch dissection. Methods: Between 1993 and December 2000, 56 patients were operated on for aortic arch dissection. Elephant trunk procedure was performed in 2...

Zusammenfassung:Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the duration of retrograde cerebral perfusion (RCP) in patients with aortic arch dissection. Methods: Between 1993 and December 2000, 56 patients were operated on for aortic arch dissection. Elephant trunk procedure was performed in 28 patients (Group A) and semiarcus replacement in 28 patients (Group B). Type I dissection ( P=0.003), chronic ethiology ( P=0.006), medial degeneration ( P
