Thoracic aortic endograft implantation has become a widespread procedure in recent years, yet no report is available about Hungarian outcomes. Examination of our results is crucial to define further treatment strategies. Analysis of perioperative data from Hungarian thoracic endograft implantations based on the experience of 5 years is presented. Our retrospective, multicentric study analysed voluntarily reported data from all Hungarian institutions where thoracic endograft implantations are performed. Information was collected from every procedure performed in 5 years. Between 2012 and 2016, 131 thoracic stent graft implantations were performed in Hungary (67.18% male, mean age 62.80 years). 25.19% of the procedures were acute. 13.74% of the patients were diabetic. Indications for the procedure were aneurysm (64.89%), dissection (17.56%), aortic trauma (6.87%) and other conditions (10.69%). 73.91% of the dissection cases were acute. 16.47% of repaired aneurysms were ruptured. Additional preoperative revascularization (debranching) was performed in 26.72% of the cases. Postoperative stroke occured in 4.58%, temporary hemodialysis was needed in 1.53%, bowel ischaemia was present in 2.29% and reoperation within 30 days was needed in 5.34% of all cases. Thirty-day mortality of the procedure was 9.92%, 5-year long-term mortality reached 16.03%. Endovascular repair of the thoracic aorta is an effective procedure and our national data comfirmed its advantages compared to open thoracic surgery. Further use of the procedure in Hungary depends on the centralised care in vascular surgery and financial matters. Multidisciplinary cooperation and proper logistics are needed to provide patients with optimal treatment. Orv Hetil. 2018; 159(2): 53-57.
