- Title
Advantages of combined distal‐first and visceral branch‐first technique: A universal fit for extensive thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm?
- Authors

- Abstract
Minimization of end-organ ischemia is a key tenet in successful thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) surgery. During these reattachments, antegrade pulsatile blood flow to the spinal cord was guaranteed not only via the Adamkiewicz artery but also the collateral network, which ultimately minimizes spinal cord ischemia. Therefore, the question remains whether the incidence of spinal cord ischemia in patients with atherothrombotic aorta could be reduced by the current technique.
