Recommendation ID
IPG733/01
Question

Evidence on the safety and efficacy of aortic remodelling hybrid stent insertion during surgical repair of an acute type A aortic dissection is limited in quantity and quality. Therefore, this procedure should only be used with special arrangements for clinical governance, consent, and audit or research. Find out what special arrangements mean on the NICE interventional procedures guidance page.

Any explanatory notes
(if applicable)

Further research could include randomised controlled trials or analysis of registry data. It should include details of patient selection and report 30-day mortality, quality of life, and long-term outcomes including aortic remodelling and complications.
