Surgery of the Thoracic Aorta
Abstract
The modern surgical treatment of disorders of the thoracic aorta began in the early 1950s when Gross, Swan, Lam, and DeBakey and their associates14 reported successful treatment of coarctation and aneurysms of the descending thoracic aorta using segmental resection and replacement with several types of grafts. In 1956, Cooley and DeBakey5 reported the first successful operation for resection and graft replacement of the ascending aorta using cardiopulmonary bypass. In 1957, DeBakey and colleagues,6 also using cardiopulmonary bypass, reported the first successful resection and graft replacement of an aneurysm of the aortic arch. Since then, important advances in the diagnosis . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
