چکیده
An 81-year-old Japanese man who had distal aortic arch dilatation at age 77 thoracic endovascular surgery. The patient developed a fever and was taken to the hospital.

متن کاملStent Graft Change Detection After Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
The use of the endovascular prostheses in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (EVAR) has proven to be an effective technique to reduce the pressure and rupture risk of aneurysms. Nevertheless, in a long-term perspective different complications, such as prosthesis displacement or leaks inside the aneurysm sac (endoleaks), could appear, causing a pressure elevation and increasing the danger of rupture cons...

متن کاملEmergency endovascular stent-graft repair for thoracic aortic injury.
We report a case of emergency endovascular stent-graft repair of a traumatic false aneurysm of the thoracic aorta. Thoracotomy was relatively contraindicated because the patient also sustained incomplete spinal injury, He recovered fully from both chest and spinal injuries, and remains without evidence of complications related to the stent-graft 18 months after the injury.
