Expert thoracic aortic aneurysm and disease treatment

The Advanced Aortic Center is one of the few of its kind in the state. Under the medical direction of a leading thoracic surgeon, the center offers referring physicians and their patients valuable expertise in the area of thoracic aortic diagnosis and treatment.

The Advanced Aortic Center works in conjunction with Baylor Scott & White The Heart Hospital – Plano to provide surgical intervention for aortic cases.


Innovative detection

Until recently, thoracic aortic disease was diagnosed only after an emergency occurred, with limited treatment options. Using advanced technology and innovative imaging techniques, the disease can now be detected earlier in the disease process, allowing for:

  • Application of medical management therapies prior to considering surgical intervention
  • Reduction of number of patients requiring surgery
  • Expansion of options for surgical candidates
  • Reduction of acute events and complications
  • Improvement of both the quality of care and long-term results
  • Utilization in advanced techniques beneficial for patient safety and improved outcomes
