Technologies for aortic dissection: Round table discussion

  • Zone 0 intervention after ascending replacement: Current arch branch technologies and areas of unmet need
  • EndoAscending repair – what do we need to conquer the last piece of the pie?
  • Needs for B/FEVAR in visceral segment: Is there ever a need for fenestrations in post-dissection aortic aneurysms?
  • False lumen management– cut, block or ignore. Is less more?
  • Navigating the dissected aorta - radiation saving technologies and what the future may hold: IVUS/FORS/IOPS
