What are the long-term outcomes and predictors of survival after aortic arch surgery?
Aortic arch surgery provides satisfactory long-term survival, which is primarily driven by patient comorbidities and postoperative neurologic deficits rather than the underlying aortic disease.
Aortic arch surgery was associated with satisfactory early and long-term outcomes. Survival was largely determined by patient comorbidities and postoperative PND. While the underlying aortic disease did not affect long-term mortality, chronic dissection was associated with increased need for aortic reinterventions.
