Abstract
The treatment of chronic aortic dissection (AD) with the FET technique is feasible, with respectable results. The rate of aortic reoperation with the use of this technique appears to be lower than that with a conventional approach to the repair of chronic AD. Ischemic spinal cord injury represents a concerning complication of the FET technique but seems to be unrelated to thrombosis of the FL.
