Analysis of risk factors for neurological dysfunction in patients with acute aortic dissection type A: data from the German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection Type A (GERAADA)

Abstract

Neurological complications are associated with increased mortality post-AADA repair. New onset ND is associated with extensive malperfusion syndrome, supraaortic vessel dissection and operative time and does not seem to be affected by choice of arterial cannulation site.
