Endovascular aortic arch repair has been widely used in select patients who are considered high risk for open surgical repair and have suitable anatomy. The anatomical challenges of placement of stent-grafts in the ascending aorta are many, including the curved configuration, short landing zone, proximity to the aortic valve and coronary arteries and need to incorporate the supra-aortic trunks. Stent-graft designs with fenestrations and/or directional branches are applicable to patients who have suitable landing zones in the aorta and supra-aortic trunks, adequate access and absence of significant atheromatous debris. These devices include single and multibranch concepts, which are used in combination or not with cervical debranching procedures. This article summarizes the most commonly used anatomical criterion with currently utilized arch branch stent-grafts.
