This meta-analysis followed the 2020 guidelines established by the Preferred Reporting Project for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA).The study had been formally registered at PROSPERO with the registration number CRD420251110307. A comprehensive search was performed in four databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library, to collect literature published up until August 3, 2024. The search methodology adhered to the PICOS principle and utilised a combination of MeSH terms and unrestricted text phrases. The search strategy employed consisted of combining the keywords "Percutaneous", "Cutdown", "Aortic aneurysm repair", and "Type B aortic dissection". Supplement material 1 offered a thorough summary of the search record. In addition, we conducted a thorough manual examination of the bibliographies of the identified papers, as well as pertinent reviews and meta-analyses, in order to uncover any studies that fit the criteria for inclusion.
