Key result
Proximal arch replacement using deep hypothermic circulatory arrest with adjunctive cerebral perfusion yielded a 30-day/in-hospital mortality of 2.9% and a stroke rate of 4.1%.

These outcomes benchmark proximal arch surgery safety; leaves open generalizability and need for randomized comparisons.
Observational (n=245)
Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest with adjunctive cerebral perfusion for proximal arch replacement demonstrates low rates of mortality and neurologic complications, establishing a strong safety benchmark.
Lima et al. (2011) conducted an observational in Proximal arch replacement (n=245). Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) with adjunctive cerebral perfusion was evaluated on 30-day/in-hospital mortality. Proximal arch replacement using deep hypothermic circulatory arrest with adjunctive cerebral perfusion yielded a 30-day/in-hospital mortality of 2.9% and a stroke rate of 4.1%.
