Conclusions
The pursuit of reducing the risks of DTA and TAA repairs, apart from the difficult challenges of arch surgery,39 has been a fascinating and engrossing endeavor that, fortunately, has resulted in better outcomes for patients—something that was always at the forefront of taking on these challenging operations in these sick patients.
