A member asked:
What is the latest surgical procedure for an aneurysm of your ascending aorta?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stent grafts: Special stent graft techniques are being researched to allow for preservation of the aortic arch branches and avoid a more invasive chest incision. Treatment of ascending aorta aneurysms involving the coronary arteries still will require bypass surgery, although may be combined with stent graft techniques.
