Popis: Objective: For high-risk patients with aortic arch pathology, hybrid aortic arch repair with simultaneous or staged thoracic endovascular repair of the descending aorta may be a viable alternative to open repair. However, data on postintervention aortic remodeling remain limited. We report the short-term outcomes of remodeling of the thoracoabdominal aorta after hybrid arch repair + thoracic endovascular repair. Methods: All patients undergoing hybrid arch repair with planned zones 0 to 5 thoracic endovascular repair from January 2020 to March 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Computed tomography angiography scans preoperatively, after hybrid aortic arch repair, and on long-term follow-up were analyzed for thoracoabdominal aorta remodeling. Mean change in aortic true luminal diameter and full luminal diameter was calculated at every level, and paired-samples t test was used to compare means. Results: Of 39 patients, 38 had follow-up data at a mean duration of 14.9 months. There were a total of 3 (7.7%) deaths, 0 (0.0%) strokes, and 0 (0.0%) paralysis. For the 35 patients undergoing thoracic endovascular repair for aortic dissection, at follow-up, there was a significant increase in the mean true luminal diameter at each level (P
