Successful Operation for Type-B Aortic Dissection with Partial Involvement of Kommerell’s Diverticulum and Aortic Rupture: A Novel Double Short-Graft Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
Acute type-B aortic dissection is generally managed by administering medical treatment with an aim to achieve pain relief and hypertension control. Surgery is usually performed only in cases of type-B dissection complicated with limb ischemia, branch vessel compression or potential fatal aortic rupture. Herein, we report an extremely unusual case of type-B aortic dissection with partial involvement of coexistent Kommerell’s diverticulum and concurrent aortic rupture that was successfully treated by means of a novel double short-graft method.

We report a rare case of type A dissection involving a right-sided aortic arch with an aberrant left subclavian artery originating from Kommerell's diverticulum in a 76-year-old woman. Endovascular treatment for Kommerell's diverticulum including intimal tear of the dissection was performed. At the 5-year follow-up, the patient was doing well, with no endoleak or dilatation of the Kommerell's d...
متن کاملSuccessful management of a combined ruptured Stanford type B aortic dissection and malperfusion syndrome with an endoluminal graft.
Thoracic endografting has been recently approved in the USA for the treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms. The application of endoluminal graft therapy to treat acute type B dissection has been shown to be effective but is still not considered standard of care. We describe the use of an endoluminal graft to treat a patient with an acute type B dissection associated with malperfusion and thorac...
