welcomes you to the new, improved website!Of 1,232 patients who underwent elective arch repairs at 11 European aortic centers, 155 were selected and their surgical outcomes were analyzed retrospectively. Approximately 13% of patients suffered an aortic event, and 85% of them needed reoperation. Multivariate analysis found older age at reoperation to be the only independent risk factor for in-hospital mortality.
