Innovations (Phila) . 2012 Mar; 1(3):115-8. PMID: 22436645
Background: : Replacement of the descending thoracic aorta is traditionally performed via a left thoracotomy. Endovascular treatment of descending thoracic aortic aneurysms has recently evolved as an alternative treatment for...

Shah P, Estrera A, Miller 3rd C, Lee T, Irani A, Meada R, et al.
Ann Thorac Surg . 2008 Aug; 86(3):774-9. PMID: 18721559
Background: Increasing numbers of older patients are requiring complex thoracic aortic surgery. This retrospective study analyzed early and late outcomes after ascending and transverse arch surgery using hypothermic circulatory arrest...

Estrera A, Porat E, Miller 3rd C, Meada R, Achouh P, Irani A, et al.
Eur J Cardiothorac Surg . 2008 Mar; 33(6):1039-42. PMID: 18359240
Objective: Open chest management during complex proximal aortic surgery may sometimes be necessary. Infectious complications such as mediastinitis and late aortic graft infection remain a concern. The objective of this...

Estrera A, Miller 3rd C, Villa M, Lee T, Meada R, Irani A, et al.
Ann Thorac Surg . 2007 Apr; 83(5):1603-8. PMID: 17462365
Background: Concerned with the associated risks of proximal reoperation, some have proposed an aggressive approach of aortic root replacement during emergent repair of acute type A aortic dissection. Because few...

Estrera A, Miller C, Goodrick J, Porat E, Achouh P, Dhareshwar J, et al.
Ann Thorac Surg . 2007 Jan; 83(2):S842-5. PMID: 17257938
Background: The optimal treatment of acute type B aortic dissection remains controversial. This study reports early clinical outcomes of medical management for acute type B aortic dissection. Methods: Between January...

Estrera A, Garami Z, Miller C, Porat E, Achouh P, Dhareshwar J, et al.
J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg . 2006 Dec; 132(6):1404-8. PMID: 17140967
Objective: Emergency surgical intervention for acute type A aortic dissection complicated by stroke remains controversial. The urgency of immediate repair in this setting is tempered by the concern that cerebral...

Ann Thorac Surg . 2005 Nov; 80(6):2173-9. PMID: 16305866
Background: Cross-clamp time has been reported to correlate with risk of neurologic deficit after thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Introduction of cerebrospinal fluid drainage and distal aortic perfusion (adjunct) has greatly...

Estrera A, Miller 3rd C, Chen E, Meada R, Torres R, Porat E, et al.
Ann Thorac Surg . 2005 Sep; 80(4):1290-6. PMID: 16181856
Background: The benefit of distal aortic perfusion and cerebrospinal fluid drainage over the "clamp and sew" technique during repairs of the descending thoracic aorta is still being debated. The purpose...
