The most common indication was post-dissection aneurysm (<em>n</em> = 50; 53%), followed by (post-)coarctation pathology (<em>n</em> = 15; 16%). Six (6%) patients were operated on for stent graft infection. The most frequent reasons for thoracic endovascular aortic repair ineligibility were absence of a proximal landing zone (<em>n</em> = 26; 27%), complex post-dissection anatomy (<em>n</em> = 19; 20%), infection (<em>n</em> = 13; 14%), and connective tissue disease (<em>n</em> = 13; 14%). Thirty day and operative mortality rates were both 3% (<em>n</em> = 3). The ninety day mortality rate was 6% (<em>n</em> = 5). Major complications included stroke (<em>n</em> = 1; 1%) and spinal cord ischaemia (<em>n</em> = 2; 2%; one transient paraparesis and one permanent paraplegia). No cases required tracheostomy or permanent dialysis. In hospital re-intervention was observed in 15% and acute kidney injury in 12% (including one patient requiring temporary dialysis). Mean follow up ± standard deviation was 49.0 ± 38.5 months. One and five year overall survival were 94.7% and 91.6%, respectively, and freedom from aortic related re-intervention was 96.8% and 94.7%, respectively.</div></div><div>Among 337 patients who underwent open thoraco-(abdominal) aortic repair, 95 (55 men; 58%), with a mean age","PeriodicalId":55160,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery","volume":"72 4","pages":"Pages 669-677"},"PeriodicalIF":8.5,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145758305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
