In this webinar, a debate will address what the optimal management strategy is for a patient presenting with acute type A aortic dissection that is complicated by malperfusion syndrome. Two views will be addressed by expert speakers. One will propose endovascular fenestration followed by later stage conventional repair while the other speaker will propose conventional repair +/- Frozen Elephant Trunk as soon as possible.

This is the first episode in the series by RSM Cardiothoracic section: Dilemmas in the acute aortic dissection.
This first webinar will join experts to explore the diagnostic challenges and treatment of acute aortic syndromes. Symptoms for acute aortic dissection may be extremely similar to those of heart attacks, but if incorrectly diagnosed, this can have life-threatening consequences.
In this second webinar, two prominent speakers in the field will address two different ways of dealing with an involved aortic arch in acute type A aortic dissection. Karen Booth will suggest ascending aorta replacement with or without hemiarch replacement. Ben Adams will then propose his way of treatment which would be to replace the ascending aorta and arch using a Frozen Elephant Trunk.
