Anaesthetic Considerations in Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair
Journal Title: Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine and Surgery - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Thoracic, abdominal and thoracoabdominal aortic pathologies have highest mortality and morbidity causing pathologies in cardiovascular surgery. Coexisting diseases and age significantly increase risk of anaesthesia and mortality rate in treatment of these patients. Endovascular techniques are used increasingly due to minimally invasive approach, decreased anaesthesia risk during implementation, reduced length of hospital stay, and low mortality and morbidity rates. The aim of this case report is focused on anaesthetic experiences in endovascular techniques performed at our center.
