Abstract

The hybrid modified branch-first technique has extended the feasibility of open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) repair in otherwise hostile aortic anatomy that is not entirely amenable for extent II open TAAA conventional repair or total endovascular repair. The modified branch-first open TAAA technique has been developed successfully at our center and has been used to treat extent III TAAAs with successful outcomes. By combining the modified technique with endovascular thoracic aortic repair, we have been able to successfully extend its use to more extensive extent II TAAAs. This could prove to be a useful technique in the armamentarium of aortic surgeons.
