Introduction:

In Mexico, there are no appropriate statistical data on aortic disease, which can be treated with medical management or open or endovascular surgical approach.

Objective:

To carry out a systematic search and review of the literature in electronic databases with regard to invasive management of aortic pathology in Mexico.

Method:

A systematic search and narrative review of available literature was carried out using different electronic databases: PubMed, Imbiomed, Clinical Key, Bibliat, Scielo, Sage Journals and Sciencedirect, as well as with the Google Scholar search engine.

Results:

Ninety articles were found, out of which only 53 met the inclusion criteria. Observational studies and case reports were selected, emphasizing on patient demographics, clinical results, and 30-day postoperative survival.

Conclusion:

An elevated rate of complications is reported for aortic pathologies due to underdiagnosis, which results in management being more complicated and prognosis unfavorable. The creation of a national aortic disease registry is crucial to standardization in the approach and optimization of results.
