We present single‐institution results of types I and II hybrid procedures for aortic arch disease with 30‐day and long‐term results and review of the literature. Materials and Methods This is a retrospective study of all patients that underwent zone 0 endografting and open bypass from ascending aorta to the arch vessels at our institution between January 2013 and 2020. The following data for the systematic review were extracted from eligible studies: 30‐day/in‐hospital mortality, stroke rate, spinal cord ischemia (SCI) rate, renal failure requiring dialysis, development of retrograde dissection, early (<30 days) types I and III endoleak, follow‐up length, late (>30 days) endoleak, and late (>30 days) mortality. Results Twelve patients underwent hybrid aortic arch treatment in our institution. The most common aortic arch pathology was degenerative aortic aneurysm. The rate of retrograde dissection and SCI was 8.33%. Regarding the literature data, a total of 768 patients undergoing types I and II hybrid aortic arch debranching procedure. The pooled rate of 30‐day/in‐hospital mortality was 10.96% (95% confidence interval [CI], 8.21–14.06), SCI pooled rate was 2.91% (95% CI, 1.76%–4.33%), and retrograde dissection pooled rate was 3.22% (95% CI, 1.99–4.72). Conclusion Hybrid arch techniques provide safe alternative to open repair with acceptable short‐ and midterm results.
