Cardiac and Vascular Surgeons for the Treatment of Aortic Disease: A Successful Partnership for Decision-Making and Management of Complex Cases. J Investig Med High Impact Case Rep. 2021;9:2324709620970890. doi:10.1177/2324709620970890https://hdl.handle.net/1805/45604Traditionally, cardiac and vascular surgeons have been treating diseases of the aorta as individual specialists. Neither cardiac nor vascular surgeons have ever considered the aorta as a whole, which can be diseased throughout its length at the same time requiring a more thoughtful and different approach. Aortic dissection and aneurysmal disease may well benefit from a multidisciplinary approach. In the context of this review, we discuss examples of joint operating between cardiac and vascular surgeons that may well become a more routine approach in more units in the future.en-USAttribution-NonCommercial 4.0 InternationalAortic teamCardiac surgeonsVascular surgeonsAortic aneurysmAortic dissectionArticle
