Abstract: Total transverse aortic arch replacement is in many ways one of the last frontiers of open cardiovascular surgery. The aortic arch and its branching arteries are complex, necessitating a nuanced and adaptable approach that is tailored to the individual needs of patients; the flexibility needed for successful repair tends to cautiously balance the use of open techniques and emerging endovascular techniques. As surgeons standing on the precipice of change, we must truly understand the breadth of our vast technical armamentarium to guide patient-specific repair.
