Population

Patients with acute type A aortic dissection (AAAD)

Intervention

Aortic arch replacement techniques including classic aortic arch operation, single stage frozen elephant trunk (FET), classical elephant trunk (ET), or Lupiae technique

Aortic arch replacement in acute type A aortic dissection requires tailored strategies based on anatomy and patient condition, balancing the complexity of techniques like FET or ET with the need for effective cerebral and visceral protection.
