    IntroductionIn Mexico, there are no appropriate statistical data on aortic disease, which can be treated with medical management or open or endovascular surgical approach.ObjectiveTo carry out a systematic search and review of the literature in electronic databases with regard to invasive management of aortic pathology in Mexico.MethodA systematic search and narrative review of available literature was carried out using different electronic databases: PubMed, Imbiomed, Clinical Key, Bibliat, Scielo, Sage Journals and Sciencedirect, as well as with the Google Scholar search engine.ResultsNinety articles were found, out of which only 53 met the inclusion criteria. Observational studies and case reports were selected, emphasizing on patient demographics, clinical results, and 30-day postoperative survival.ConclusionAn elevated rate of complications is reported for aortic pathologies due to underdiagnosis, which results in management being more complicated and prognosis unfavorable. The creation of a national aortic disease registry is crucial to standardization in the approach and optimization of results.Copyright: © 2019 SecretarÍa de Salud.
