Short- and mid-term outcomes of the aortic root repair versus root replacement in acute type A aortic dissection

In patients with acute acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) requiring emergency surgery, the use of aortic root repair or replacement remains a topic of controversy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the early and mid-term clinical outcomes after aortic root repair or replacement, and to provide a theoretical basis for such patients.
