Right brachial access is safe for branched endovascular aneurysm repair in complex aortic disease

The risk of perioperative cerebrovascular events in endovascular repair of thoracic and thoracoabdominal aneurysms is reported from 2% to 15%. The unavoidable use of an upper extremity access during branched endovascular aneurysm repair (b-EVAR) may play a role in embolic brain injuries. For this re...
