The AAEs occurred in 14 (9.0%) patients, with 8 in group 1 and 6 in group 2, and no significant differences were found between the 2 groups (P\u2009=\u2009.294). Patients in group 1 were younger (50.1\u2009\u00b1\u20096.5 vs 55.6\u2009\u00b1\u20099.2, P\u2009=\u2009.04) and more often had a primary entry at the inner curvature of the arch (57.4% vs 25.3%, P\u2009&amp;lt;\u2009.001).
