Late lumen loss in thoracic aortic end graft after endovascular procedure of a traumatic pseudoaneurysm
Authors
Abstract:
We report the case of a 23-year-old woman who died due to endograft stenosis 20 months after thoracic endovascular aortic repair. The patient presented with the pseudocoarctation syndrome. Although angioplasty of stenosis endograft was successfully performed, severe metabolic complications were lethal.

Endovascular treatment for traumatic thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm: a case report
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 ...
full textHybrid thoracic endovascular aortic repair of ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm.
We report the successful thoracic endovascular aortic repair of an ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm. Because the risk of resternotomy after conventional surgery was very high, endovascular repair with extra-anatomic reconstruction of the supra-aortic vessels was performed using the femoral artery as the donor artery. Complete exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm was achieved, with no postoperative co...

Traumatic thoracic aortic injury is typically fatal. However, recent improvements in pre-hospital care and diagnostic modalities have resulted in an increased number of patients with traumatic aortic injury arriving alive at the hospital. Also, the morbidity and mortality associated with endovascular repair are significantly lower than with conventional open surgery in traumatic thoracic aorta ...

A 69-year-old man underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair of a descending aortic aneurysm. Three years later, he developed impending rupture due to aneurysmal expansion that included the proximal landing zone. Urgent open surgery was performed via lateral thoracotomy, and a Dacron graft was sewn to the previous stent graft distally with Teflon felt reinforcement. Postoperatively, four seq...

Between November 2000 and December 2011, all consecutive patients undergoing endovascular repair for descending thoracic or thoraco-abdominal aortic disease were identified. Follow-up imaging protocol included triple-phase CT-angiography at 1, 4, and 12 months, and annually thereafter. Migration was defined as proximal/ distal movements >10 mm relative to anatomical landmarks or any movement le...
full textFactors favoring stent-graft collapse after thoracic endovascular aortic repair.
OBJECTIVE Our objective was to assess potential causative factors of stent-graft collapse after thoracic endovascular aortic repair. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed clinical data and preoperative and postoperative computed tomographic scans of patients with thoracic stent-graft collapse in 2 French departments of vascular surgery. Aortic arch angulation, length of the lack of device wall ...
