Hybrid procedures for the repair of thoracoabdominal aneurysms have become more widely reported in the literature in the past few years. This procedure was developed as an alternative to the traditional method of open thoracoabdominal repair in the absence of a viable total endovascular solution for all cases. The early results of the procedure encouraged more centers to use a hybrid solution in the treatment of complex aortic pathology. This article evaluates the current status of this procedure and future developments.
