Aortic suture repair is a surgical technique used to address defects or injuries in the aorta, the body's largest artery. This procedure typically involves suturing the aortic wall to close tears, holes, or aneurysms, thereby restoring its integrity and preventing further complications. It can be performed as an open surgery or via minimally invasive techniques, depending on the specific condition and the patient's overall health. Successful repair can significantly reduce the risk of life-threatening events such as aortic rupture or dissection.
