摘要

While outcomes following complex arch and proximal descending thoracic aortic reconstructions continue to improve, morbidity and mortality remain problematic, especially in high-risk patients. Accordingly, hybrid approaches, which combine open and endovascular techniques, have been popularized to minimize perioperative risk. There are several strategies, tailored based on anatomic and patient-specific considerations, that will be outlined in the following chapter.
