Review Meta AnalysisUnilateral versus bilateral antegrade cerebral protection during circulatory arrest in aortic surgery: a meta-analysis of 5100 patients.
Our objective was to determine whether the use of unilateral (u-ACP) or bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion (b-ACP) results in different mortality and neurologic outcomes after complex aortic surgery. ⋯ This meta-analysis shows that b-ACP and u-ACP have similar postoperative mortality and both PND and TND rates after circulatory arrest for complex aortic surgery.
