Endovascular treatment for traumatic thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm: a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cases of an endovascular treatment for traumatic aortic injury are extremely rare. A prompt diagnosis of traumatic thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm through a 3-dimensional computed tomographic angiography of aorta and emergency repair are mandatory to rescue the life-threatening condition. An endovascular treatment is a trend for traumatic aortic injury because of lower invasivity, morbidity and mortality. We reported a rare case of traumatic aortic injury with thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm definitively diagnosed by the reconstructional computed tomographic angiography of aorta and successfully treated with endovascular stent-graft.

متن کاملComplications after endovascular repair of Stanford type A (ascending) aortic dissection.
Endovascular treatment has emerged as a less traumatic alternative treatment for several diseases of the thoracic aorta. However, the complications of the endovascular management of ascending aortic dissections are still high. We present a case of two iatrogenic complications after endovascular repair (EVAR) of type A (ascending) aortic dissection. Retrograde aortic dissection at the proximal p...
