Outcomes following extended thoracic endovascular aortic repair for Type B aortic dissection from the global registry for endovascular aortic treatment.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This study evaluated the short- to longer-term safety and efficacy of extended thoracic endovascular aortic repair for Type B aortic dissection.

Methods

We identified acute and subacute Type B dissection between 2010 and 2016 in the Global Registry for Endovascular Aortic Treatment. We stratified the population based on treatment extent: 'non-extended' (1 stent graft deployed), 'extended' (>1 stent graft deployed). Our primary outcomes were in-hospital spinal cord ischaemia and mortality. Secondarily, we evaluated procedure-related complications (endoleak, migration, fracture, compression, reinterventions), sac dynamics, rupture, and all-cause mortality at 1 and 5 years. Sensitivity analysis was performed in patients without prior aortic procedures.
