Since the first endovascular aortic repair in 1990, endovascular devices and the indications for their use have significantly grown. Considerable progress has been made in endovascular devices and techniques, such that endovascular repair is now considered first-line treatment for patients with descending aortic disease. However, for patients with ascending aortic disease, open surgical repair with cardiopulmonary bypass and hypothermic cardiac arrest was the only option until recently. Although the outcomes for open surgical repair of the ascending aorta have improved over the years, approximately 30% of patients with an emergent surgical indication, such as type A aortic dissection, are considered to be too high risk for open repair. For these patients, endovascular repair of the ascending aorta offers a life-saving procedure. The ascending aorta is regarded as the final frontier for endovascular therapy. Endovascular repair of it has posed a formidable challenge thus far, due to its unique anatomy, hemodynamic forces, and lack of an appropriate stent-graft designed specifically for the ascending aorta. Although currently there are no comprehensive data from randomized clinical trials, there are several case series and case reports that have shown favorable outcomes. Improvements in available devices soon will drive an exponential increase in the number of patients undergoing endovascular ascending aortic repair. In this review, the authors discuss multiple aspects of endovascular ascending aortic repair including the unique surgical and anesthetic considerations, the devices used, and the available outcomes data, and future directions are also explored.
