Mastering Complexity in Advanced Aortic Care
Anchored by specialized centers in Plano and Dallas, our multidisciplinary aortic team treats complex pathologies with unmatched precision.
2026 Outcomes
Our advanced aortic program is built on close collaboration between multidisciplinary teams, who jointly plan and perform complex open, endovascular and hybrid procedures. In addition, we bridge clinical research with lifesaving surgical and percutaneous repairs, including the Ross procedure, for elective and emergent cases.
A STRATEGIC VISION
Through our Advanced Aortic Centers in Dallas and Plano, we are advancing a bold transformation to become a global destination for complex aortic disease through five pillars:
1. Multidisciplinary collaboration
2. Standardized clinical pathways
3. Advanced imaging
4. Genetic resources
5. Innovative technologies
