Abstract

Late presentation of aortic false aneurysm following repair of acute type A aortic dissection occurs in 10% to 24% of cases. This condition is associated with high mortality if left untreated. Herein we describe a combination of surgical strategies that we believe may be used effectively to reduce the surgical risk of these complex operations.
