Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate and address the question surrounding the determination of the optimal endograft length of coverage during TEVAR for type B aortic dissection (TBAD), with a particular emphasis on the distal landing zone (DLZ).
Data Sources: MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were used.
Methods: The PRISMA-ScR statement was followed.
Results: Several variables can contribute to the length of coverage during TEVAR in TBAD patient. Baseline patient's characteristics, TBAD-related features, the type of endoprosthesis, and postoperative graft behaviour may contribute to the choice of coverage.
Conclusions: No robust data have been published regarding the optimal length of TEVAR. Therefore, reporting the percentage of covered aorta and improving computational studies should be valorised to improve postoperative outcomes.

Objectives: We aimed to assess the long-term survival following surgical repair because of type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) and the correlation with the preoperative GERAADA-score value.
Methods: We enrolled patients who underwent emergent aortic surgery because of ATAAD from 2010 to 2022 from 9 hospitals. Follow-up information was obtained by matching the clinical patient data with a national administrative database.

Unlabelled: Aortic dissection is a life-threatening cardiovascular emergency, particularly Stanford type A, which typically necessitates urgent surgical intervention. Despite advances in surgical techniques and perioperative care, preoperative bleeding and coagulopathy remain significant challenges. Tranexamic acid, an antifibrinolytic agent, is widely used to minimize perioperative bleeding in cardiovascular surgeries; however, its role in the non-surgical, preoperative stabilization of aortic dissection has not been well established.

Unlabelled: Encephalitis is a potentially life-threatening condition with infectious or autoimmune aetiologies. Autoimmune encephalitis includes paraneoplastic variants associated with specific onconeural antibodies such as anti-Hu, frequently linked to malignancies. Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is the leading infectious cause in adults.
