BACKGROUND Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has emerged as an acceptable off-label treatment modality for aortic dissection. We report our experience in endovascular treatment of this disease with an emphasis on defining the patterns of morbidity. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed all (n = 90) patients with thoracic aortic disease who received a TEVAR between February 2005 and De...

متن کاملAn Unusual Complication of Surgery for Type A Dissection Treated by Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair.
A 58-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for massive swelling in an anterior cervical location. Nine years earlier, he underwent surgical repair of a complex type A aortic dissection. This procedure was complicated by a fistula between the anastomosis of the graft and the descending aorta, resulting in massive presternal swelling. Therefore, we performed thoracic endovascular repair with ...
