The aim of this study was to analyze the long-term results of residual aortic dissection (RAD) at a high-volume aortic center with prospective follow-up. Methods In this prospective single-center study, all patients operated for type A aortic dissection between January 2017 and December 2022 were included. Patients without postoperative computed tomography scans or during follow-up at our center, and patients without RAD were excluded. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality during follow-up for patients with RAD. The secondary endpoints were perioperative mortality, rate of distal aneurysmal evolution, location of distal aneurysmal evolution, rate of distal reinterventions, outcomes of distal reinterventions, and aortic-related death during follow-up. Results In total, 200 survivors of RAD comprised the study group. After a mean follow-up of 27.2 months (1\u201366), eight patients (4.0%) died and 107 (53.5%) had an aneurysmal progression. The rate of distal reintervention was 19.5% (39\/200), for malperfusion syndrome in seven cases (3.5%) and aneurysmal evolution in 32 cases (16.0%). Most reinterventions occurred during the first 2 years (82.1%). Twenty-seven patients were treated for an aneurysmal evolution of RAD including aortic arch with hybrid repair in 21 cases and branched aortic arch endoprosthesis in six cases. In the hybrid repair group, there was no death, and the rate of morbidity was 28.6% (6\/21) (one minor stroke, one pulmonary complication, one recurrent paralysis with complete recovery and three major bleeding events). In the branched endograft group, there was no death, no stroke, and no paraplegia. There was one case (16.7%) of carotid dissection. Complete aortic remodeling or complete FL thrombosis on the thoracic aorta was found in 18 cases (85.7%) and in five cases (83.3%) in the hybrid and branched endograft groups, respectively. Conclusions: Despite a critical course in most cases of RAD, with a high rate of aneurysmal evolution and reintervention, the long-term mortality rate remains low with a close follow-up and a multidisciplinary management in an expert center.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm12062363","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,20]],"date-time":"2023-03-20T03:09:37Z","timestamp":1679281777000},"page":"2363","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Reintervention of Residual Aortic Dissection after Type A Aortic Repair: Results of a Prospective Follow-Up at 5 Years"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Aliz\u00e9e","family":"Porto","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiac Surgery, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Virgile","family":"Omnes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, Timone Aortic Center, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michel A.","family":"Bartoli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, Timone Aortic Center, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ron","family":"Azogui","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, Timone Aortic Center, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"No\u00e9mie","family":"Resseguier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Public Health Cost, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4779-8112","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mariangela","family":"De Masi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, Timone Aortic Center, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Laurence","family":"Bal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, Timone Aortic Center, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Laura","family":"Imbert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Public Health Cost, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nicolas","family":"Jaussaud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiac Surgery, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pierre","family":"Morera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiac Surgery, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alexis","family":"Jacquier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pierre-Antoine","family":"Barral","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vlad","family":"Gariboldi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiac Surgery, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marine","family":"Gaudry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, Timone Aortic Center, Timone Hospital, Assistance Publique-H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"709","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvs.2021.08.080","article-title":"A systematic review and meta-analysis of the incidence of acute aortic dissections in population-based studies","volume":"75","author":"Gouveia","year":"2022","journal-title":"J.
