Summary
The Thoraflex Hybrid Prosthesis (THP) is a leading device for total arch replacement (TAR) with frozen elephant trunk (FET) procedures. It demonstrates effective clinical outcomes in treating complex thoracic aortic disease.
Area of Science:
- Cardiovascular Surgery
- Thoracic Aortic Disease Management
Background:
- Thoracic aortic disease incidence is increasing.
- Total arch replacement (TAR) with frozen elephant trunk (FET) is the gold standard.
- The Thoraflex Hybrid Prosthesis (THP) is a widely used FET device.
Conclusions:
- THP is effective due to its innovative design.
- THP is a leading FET device, especially with proper patient selection and surgical planning.
