a nitinol stent was detected on the 2-year follow-up CT, with no consequences. No recurrence of ischemia was observed. Aortic diameter increased signicantly over time (P=.0038) at a mean rate of 1.46mm/year. Two patients had a signicantly increased aortic thoracic diameter (9%) and needed surgical treatment.
3.6 Conclusions forClinical Practice
1. Optimal medical therapy (OMT) is the recommended treatment for patients with
uncomplicated type B aortic dissection (TBAD). To avoid aortic complications in uncomplicated acute type B aortic dissection, early endovascular repair (TEVAR) may be considered selectively.
2. TEVAR is indicated for complicated hyperacute, acute or subacute TBAD with
rupture and/or malperfusion and favourable anatomy. Open surgical manage­ment should be considered in patients with complicated hyperacute, acute or subacute TBAD with anatomy unsuitable for TEVAR.
3. In chronic type B aortic dissection, there is an early survival advantage and a
lower rate of major complications of standard TEVAR over open repair. The reintervention rate for TEVAR due to chronic dissection is relatively high, but the medium-term survival is similar for TEVAR and open repair.
4. Referral of the patient to a centre with a high surgical case volume is associated
with signicantly lower hospital mortality, especially in the case of open repair of type B aortic dissection and is urgently recommended.

Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms (DTAA) andThoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysms (TAAA)
4.1 Guidelines
4.1.1 Clinical Practice Guidelines oftheEuropean Society
forVascular Surgery (ESVS)
The clinical practice guidelines of the European Society for Vascular Surgery (ESVS) recommend for treatment of descending aortic aneurysms [1]:
• Open repair (OR) may be considered for t patients, with a descending thoracic
aorta between 56 to 59mm in diameter, who are unsuitable for endovascular treatment. (Class IIb; Level of evidence C).
• OR should be considered for t patients, with a descending thoracic aorta exceed-
ing 60mm in diameter, who are unsuitable for endovascular treatment. (Class IIa; Level of evidence C).
• To reduce the rate of postoperative paraplegia, left heart bypass is not recom-
mended for patients undergoing open repair for descending thoracic aneurysm. (Class III; Level of evidence C).
• In t and unt patients with favourable anatomy, endovascular repair may be
considered for descending thoracic aorta aneurysms between 56 and 59 mm diameter. (Class IIb; Level of evidence B).
• In t and unt patients with favourable anatomy, endovascular repair should be
considered for descending thoracic aorta aneurysms >60mm diameter. (Class IIa; Level of evidence B).
• In elective thoracic endografting cases when it is planned to intentionally cover
the left subclavian artery, in patients at risk of neurological complications, pre­ventive left subclavian artery revascularisation should be considered. (Class IIa; Level of evidence C).

4.1.2 Clinical Practice Guidelines oftheSociety forVascular
Surgery (SVS)
Important recommendations are [2]:
• In patients who could undergo either technique [open, OR or TEVAR] (within
the criteria of the device’s instructions for use), we recommend TEVAR as the preferred approach to treat elective descending thoracic aorta (DTA) aneurysms,
4.1 Guidelines

given its reduced morbidity and length of stay as well as short-term mortality. Level of recommendation: Grade 1 (Strong), Quality of Evidence: A (High).
• We recommend TEVAR in asymptomatic patients with a descending thoracic
aortic aneurysm (TAA) when the maximum aneurysm diameter has exceeded
5.5cm in low-risk patients with favourable aortic anatomy. Level of recommen­dation: Grade 1 (strong). Quality of evidence B (moderate).
• We suggest using higher aortic diameter thresholds for TEVAR in patients
deemed to have a particularly high risk of death, renal failure, or paraplegia from the procedure, where the benet of treatment is lower than the risk posed by the natural history of the TAA.Level of recommendation: Grade 2 (Weak), Quality of Evidence: C (Low).
• We recommend TEVAR in patients with IMH (intramural haematoma) or pene-
trating aortic ulcer (PAU) who have persistent symptoms or complications or show evidence of disease progression on follow-up imaging after a period of hypertension control. Level of recommendation: Grade 1 (Strong), Quality of Evidence: B (Moderate).
The natural history of and indications for repair in patients with PAUs are controver­sial, but they have been found in one series to grow 2mm/year in their maximal aortic size and length while growing an average of only 1.2mm/year in depth. The presence of symptoms, an associated IMH, and an increase in pleural effusion appear to be risk factors for complications. Treatment with TEVAR is indicated for patients who are symptomatic despite best medical therapy or have an increase in pleural effusion. The threshold for intervention for asymptomatic patients is also controversial. According to one study, PAU depth>10mm and diameter>20mm are risk factors for progressive disease.
Practice Statement: In the absence of clear and widely accepted parameters, the decision to intervene in asymptomatic patients with IMH and PAUs should be indi­vidualized. Asymptomatic patients treated for PAUs in the setting of a maximal aortic diameter<5.5cm or with PAUs <10mm deep or<20mm in diameter need further study.
• We suggest TEVAR for symptomatic mycotic/infected TAAs as a temporizing
measure, but data demonstrating long-term benet are lacking. Level of recom-
mendation: Grade 2 (Weak), Quality of Evidence: C (Low).
• For elective TEVAR of a TAA where coverage of the LSA (left subclavian artery)
is necessary for adequate stent graft seal, we suggest preoperative or concomitant
LSA revascularization. Level of recommendation: Grade 1 (Strong), Quality of
Evidence: B (Moderate).
• We recommend nonionic, hypoosmolar contrast material with attempts at mini-
mizing intra-arterial contrast agent use, especially in patients at high risk for
contrast-induced nephropathy. Level of recommendation: Grade 1 (Strong),
Quality of Evidence: B (Moderate).
• We recommend pre-emptive SMA (superior mesenteric artery) stenting with a
balloon-expandable stent in cases of >50% stenosis of the SMA in the following
conditions: before or after CA (celiac artery) coverage or encroachment, with
72

TEVAR that is encroaching on the SMA origin, or in any patient otherwise con-
sidered at high risk for post-TEVAR mesenteric ischemia. Level of recommenda-
tion: Grade 1 (Strong), Quality of Evidence: B (Moderate).
• In anticipation of high risk for CA territory ischemia (nonvisualization of CA
collateral branches by CTA or dedicated SMA angiography), we recommend
open or endovascular revascularization of the CA before TEVAR.Level of rec-
ommendation: Grade 1 (Strong), Quality of Evidence: B (Moderate).
• Practice Statement: Brachiocephalic access for TEVAR device delivery may be
acceptable in situations in which transfemoral or iliac access is not available.
However, more data are required to determine whether carotid-axillary artery
access for delivery of a thoracic endograft is associated with increased
complications.
• We recommend TEVAR over open repair for the treatment of ruptured DTA
when it is anatomically feasible. Level of recommendation: Grade 1 (Strong),
Quality of Evidence: B (Moderate).
4.1.3 ACC/AHA Guideline fortheDiagnosis andManagement
ofAortic Disease
Important recommendations are [3]:
• In patients with intact descending TAA, repair is recommended when the diam-
eter is ≥5.5 cm. (Class of recommendation [COR] 1; Level of evidence
[LOE] B-NR).
• In patients with intact descending TAA and risk factors for rupture (Table4.1),
repair may be considered at a diameter of <5.5cm. (COR 2b; LOE B-NR).
• In patients at increased risk for perioperative morbidity and mortality (Table4.2),
it may be reasonable to increase the size threshold for surgery accordingly. (COR
2b; LOE B-NR).
Recommendations for endovascular versus open repair of descending TAA:
• In patients without Marfan syndrome, Loeys-Dietz syndrome, or vascular Ehlers-
Danlos syndrome, who have a descending TAA that meets criteria for interven-

tion and anatomy suitable for endovascular repair, TEVAR is recommended over open surgery. (COR 1; LOE B-NR).
• In patients with a descending TAA that meets criteria for repair with TEVAR, who have smaller or diseased access vessels, considerations for alternative vas­cular access are recommended. (COR 1; LOE B-NR).
• In patients with a descending TAA that meets criteria for intervention, who have anatomy unsuitable for endovascular repair, and who are without signicant comorbidities and have a life expectancy of at least 10years, open surgical repair is reasonable. (COR 2a; LOE B-NR).
4.2 Results
4.2.1 Meta-Analyses andSystematic Reviews
4.2.1.1 Open vs. Endovascular Repair ofThoracic Aortic Aneurysms
The rst systematic review to investigate two-armed studies looking only at elective endovascular stent grafting versus open surgical repair for treatment of chronic arch or descending thoracic aortic aneurysms was published by McCarthy et al. [4]. Other reviews also included dissections or ruptures. Five comparative cohort studies with 3955 endovascular stent graft procedures and 21,197 open surgical repairs (ORs) were the basis. Meta-analysis of unadjusted short-term (30-day) all-cause mortality favoured the endovascular procedure (odds ratio 0.75). Sensitivity analy­sis of four studies including only descending aortic aneurysms showed no signi­cant differences, with moderate heterogeneity. Meta-analysis of adjusted short-term all-cause mortality favoured TEVAR (odds ratio 0.71), without heterogeneity. Longer-term survival (beyond 30 days) from all-cause mortality favoured OR in larger studies and TEVAR in smaller studies. Freedom from reintervention in the longer-term favoured OR.Studies reporting short-term non-fatal complications sug­gested fewer events following TEVAR.The authors concluded that OR is better for

long-term survival and avoidance of reintervention; conversely, TEVAR is better in terms of short-term outcome.
4.2.1.2 Open Repair ofThoracic Aortic Aneurysms
Khan etal. [5] evaluated in a single-arm meta-analysis the results of a contemporary series of open repair of TAAA and DTA in terms of operative and long-term mortal­ity, and postoperative complications. 54 observational studies with 12,245 patients met inclusion criteria and were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled operative mortality was 10.4% (95% condence interval [CI], 8.3–12.8): 6.6% (95% CI,
3.7–11.6) for DTA and 10.5% (95% CI, 7.5–14.5) for TAAA.The pooled incidence
rate of late mortality was 0.6% per person-year. Pooled rates for postoperative out­comes were 4.9% for stroke; 5.7% and 3.0% for permanent and temporary spinal cord injury, respectively; 13.2% for renal failure; 23.3% for respiratory failure; and
2.7% for myocardial infarction. Cerebrospinal uid (CSF) drainage was associated
with lower operative mortality. Ruptured aneurysms were associated with higher mortality. The data indicate that open repair of these aneurysms is still associated with a considerable risk for operative death and perioperative complications.
4.2.1.3 Spinal Cord Ischaemia After Open andEndovascular Repair
An inclusive contemporary analysis of spinal cord injury (SCI) rates in patients undergoing aneurysm repair and the factors associated with complications has been performed by Gaudino etal. [6]. 169 studies (22,634 patients) from 2008 to 2018 on repair of descending thoracic aneurysm (DTA) and thoracoabdominal aortic aneu­rysm (TAAA) were pooled in this meta-analysis. The primary outcome was perma­nent SCI.Secondary outcomes were temporary SCI, operative mortality, long-term mortality, postoperative stroke, and cerebrospinal uid (CSF) drain-related compli­cations. The pooled rate of permanent SCI was 4.5%; 3.5% for DTA and 7.6% for TAAA repair, 5.7% for open repair and 3.9% (95% CI, 3.1–4.8) for endovascular repair. The pooled rates for operative mortality, late mortality at a mean follow-up of 5.0years, stroke, and temporary SCI were 7.4%, 1.0%, 4.2% and 3.7%, respec­tively. The pooled rates for severe, moderate, and minor CSF-drain related compli­cations were 5.1%, 4.1%, and 3.6% respectively. Despite improvement, both open and endovascular aneurysm repair remain associated with a substantial risk of per­manent SCI.The risk is greater for TAAA repair, especially extent II, III, and V.
A second meta-analysis has been performed for the occurrence of spinal cord
ischaemia after endovascular treatment of TAAA by Pini etal. [7]. A total of 27 studies with 2333 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled rate of SCI was 11%. For extent I, II, III and V TAAA the pooled SCI rate was 13%, for extent IV TAAA the pooled SCI rate was 6%. A staged TAAA-endovascular repair approach was used in 20 studies and a nonstaged approach in 8 (1 study had included both). A lower rate of SCI was seen with a staged approach than with a non-staged
4.2 Results

75
approach (9% vs. 18%; p=0.02). Symptomatic CSF drainage was associated with a similar pooled SCI rate compared with prophylactic CSF drainage (10% vs. 10%). The pooled permanent SCI rate was 6% (6% for extent I, II, III and V TAAA; 3% for extent IV TAAA). The pooled 30-day mortality rate was 7%, with a similar inci­dence for the staged and nonstaged approaches (6% vs 9%, respectively). The authors concluded that for endovascular treatment of TAAA, the staged (two-stage) approach is likely to be associated with a lower SCI rate. The overall efcacy of CSF drainage could not be denitively assessed.
Zhang etal. [8] performed a systemic review and meta-analysis to compare the
association between prophylactic CSFD vs non-CSFD in preventing spinal cord ischemia after thoracic endovascular aortic repair for aneurysm and dissection. A total of 34 studies of 3561 patients (2671 with TAA or TAAA and 890 with type B AD) were included. In the total population, the SCI rate after TEVAR with prophy­lactic CSF drainage was 4.45%, without drainage 3.18%. In the dissection group, the SCI rate after TEVAR with prophylactic CSF drainage was signicantly lower than in the aneurysm group with CSF drainage (1.8% vs. 5.73%; p < 0.0001). Furthermore, for aortic dissections, the SCI rate was not different in TEVAR with and without prophylactic CSF drainage. The same was true for patients with TAA.However, in patients with TAAA and TEVAR, the rate of SCI was signi­cantly lower with routine CSF drainage than in patients with selective drainage (p=0.04). This meta-analysis has shown that SCI occurs more often after TEVAR for aortic aneurysms than for AD. Routine prophylactic CSFD, compared with selective CSFD, was associated with a lower rate of postoperative SCI after TEVAR for TAAAs. No signicant association was found between the SCI rate and routine prophylactic CSFD for patients undergoing TEVAR for isolated TAA or AD.
4.2.1.4 Stroke Rate After Endovascular Repair ofTAA
Karaolanis etal. [9] performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the stroke rates after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for descending tho­racic aortic aneurysms and/or dissections. 43 studies (5764 patients) were identi­ed. Overall, the pooled stroke rate was 4.4%, and 1.8% for TBAD in 12 studies. The incidence of stroke after coverage of the left subclavian artery (LSA) during TEVAR was 5.97% and was reported in 19 studies. The pooled stroke rate for the group of patients with LSA coverage and prior revascularization was 2.81% in 18 studies. For the group of patients with LSA ostial coverage without revasculariza­tion reported in 15 studies, the pooled stroke rate was 11.83%. If TEVAR was per­formed within or distal to zone ≥3, without coverage of LSA, the pooled stroke rate was 3.15%. These ndings support the recommendation by the Society for Vascular Surgery, which has recently suggested preoperative or concomitant LSA revascular­ization in cases of TEVAR for which LSA coverage is necessary for an adequate stent graft seal (grade 1; quality of evidence B).
