Abstract:
There is currently no standard, evidence-based approach for sizing the Thoraflex Hybrid prosthesis in frozen elephant trunk surgery. We present regional data on 906 Thoraflex grafts implanted in the United Kingdom between December 2012 and August 2021 to emphasize the heterogeneity in sizing practices and evaluate the impact this may have on clinical outcomes. Highlighting this heterogeneity will help develop an evidence-based approach to prosthesis sizing, thereby aiding decision-making for arch repair.
