چکیده

Abstract Introduction Dissection and aneurysms of the aorta are pathologies that greatly compromise prognosis patients. By examining these in area under consideration, knowing they also subject epiacortic arterial structures to this dilation, an endovascular solution was sought would reduce long risky times surgery. A hybrid operation is implemented Thoraflex™ implant. During cardiac surgery, replacement ascending aorta, whether by dissection or aneurysm, incorporated with implant state-of-the-art prosthesis can circumscribe problem descending thoracic aorta. This device has three outlets will play role supraortic arteries. Purpose Assessment patients for treatment chronic thrombosed dissections aortic arch describe effectiveness treatment. Method Pubmed search related clinical data field experience performed. Results Patients different pathology were treated evaluated. The recovery, compared classic faster due lower exposure extra-body circulation a reduced surgical time. Conclusions as frozen elephant trunk presents cutting-edge option valid alternative complex pathologies. It clear how much, despite risks stroke, infections procrastination considerably above all mortality rate been reduced, making approach usually less emergency.
