چکیده

A 77-year old woman who underwent hybrid aortic arch repair using a Gore-TAG (Gore-Associates, Flagstaff, AZ, USA) endograft (Fig. 1A) complained of chest pain 5 months after operation. Blood cultures revealed Serratia marcescens. Computed tomography (CT) demonstrated dislocation of the endograft with formation of a pseudoaneurysm (Fig. 1B). Ascending aorta replacement with re-debranching was emergently performed (Fig. 2).

Challenges of “Reverse” Aortic Arch Debranching for Repair of the Ascending Aorta by Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair

INTRODUCTION Ascending aortic pathology presents a unique challenge for treatment by thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), because of lack of adequate endograft landing zones. This report describes a unique "reverse" extra-anatomical aortic arch debranching procedure performed to enable TEVAR of the ascending aorta. REPORT A 71-year-old male presented with a large ascending aortic pseu...

Hybrid arch debranching and endograft repair in a patient with a ruptured thoracic aortic aneurysm.

Recent advances in hybrid techniques of aortic arch debranching allow for the repair of thoracic aortic arch aneurysm without requiring cardiopulmonary bypass or hypothermic circulatory arrest. We describe the repair of a ruptured proximal descending thoracic aortic aneurysm, using off-pump aortic arch debranching and antegrade transaortic deployment of a thoracic endograft in an elderly patient.
