Aortic aneurysm & dissection in China

主动脉瘤/主动脉夹层

Aortic dissection is measured in hours, and aneurysm repair in experience. China holds a special position here: the Sun procedure — total arch replacement with a stented elephant trunk — was invented in China, and Chinese centers perform more of these operations than anywhere else.

Beijing Anzhen runs the highest-volume aortic surgery program in China; Fuwai and Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital complete the tier. No waiting lists — for this disease, that fact is clinical.
