Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is the largest study to evaluate incidence and distribution of silent cerebral infarction (SBI) following endovascular repair for disease of the aortic arch. Also, it is the first cohort to include total endovascular arch repair and devices flushed with carbon dioxide (CO2) to prevent gaseous cerebral embolization.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Introduction. Poor data exist concerning the rate of silent cerebral ischemic events following endovascular treatment of the aortic arch. The objective of this work was to quantify these lesions using the STEP registry.

Methods. This multicentre retrospective cohort study included consecutive patients treated with an aortic endoprosthesis deployed in Ishimaru zone 0 to 3 and brain diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) within 7 days after the procedure. DW-MRI was performed to identify the location and number of new silent brain infarctions (SBI), microbleeds ans general outcome of the patients.
