In the recent years, aortic arch surgery has reached a
level that can be performed with much lower morbidity
and mortality rates when compared with the past years.
Although the conventional open surgical repair including
graft interposition is thought to be the definitive treatment
modality, it still has high mortality and morbidity rates,
particularly in high-risk patients. Endovascular repair of
the aortic pathologies is a less invasive treatment option for
many aortic pathologies. Application of an endoprosthesis
may be limited in the presence of aortic arch involvement,
since it might be necessary to occlude the orifices of
one or more branches of the aortic arch for sufficient
proximal and distal fixation of the endograft and exclusion
of the aneurysm. Debranching bypass procedures are
performed to create sufficient length for proximal or distal
landing zone. In conclusion, particularly useful in high risk
patients, minimizing the invasiveness of the conventional
procedure is aimed by avoiding aortic cross-clamping,
cardiopulmonary bypass or total circulatory arrest. In this
paper; the indications, application techniques, and earlyand
mid-term results of the hybrid interventions in complex
aortic arch pathologies were discussed. Moreover, our
clinical experience was summarized.
