Abstract
Proximal reoperations for repaired acute type A aortic dissection can be performed with acceptable early and late mortality. The concern for proximal reoperation should not dictate the initial procedure choice during acute type A aortic dissection. Continued clinical and radiographic surveillance of repaired type A aortic dissection is warranted.
