Staged hybrid aortic procedure for chronic type B aortic dissection in two patients with Marfan syndrome.

We here report two patients with Marfan syndrome treated by a combination of surgical grafting and endovascular repair in our hospital. One was a 32-year-old woman who underwent thoracoabdominal aortic replacement for a Crawford type III dissected aortic aneurysm. Subsequently, the Bentall procedure and total arch replacement was performed for an aortic root and arch aneurysm. Finally, thoracic endovascular aortic repair bridging implanted grafts was performed. The second was a 67-year-old woman with Stanford type A acute aortic dissection who underwent the Bentall procedure and total arch replacement at the age of 64. Subsequently, she underwent thoracoabdominal replacement for a dilated dissected aortic aneurysm and finally, bridging endovascular aortic repair was performed. This procedure is less invasive than open repair for patients with Marfan syndrome.
