Surgical treatment of aortobronchial fistula after thoracic endograft failure
Endovascular stent grafting has been recently considered as a less invasive alternative to either medical therapy or open surgical treatment for many patients with descending thoracic aortic disease. Late complications are rarely described in literature. Herein, we described the occurrence of an aorto-bronchial fistula and a retro-A dissection in a 73-year-old man after stent-grafting for a pen...

متن کاملConformable Gore® TAG® Thoracic Endoprosthesis for the treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms
Although relatively uncommon, descending thoracic aortic aneurysms are lethal, with a natural history of progressive dilatation, rupture and death. The traditional treatment of these aneurysms involves open thoracotomy and replacement of the aneurysmal aorta with a prosthetic graft. Although successful and durable, this treatment is potentially associated with significant morbidity and mortalit...
متن کاملPeriscope endograft technique to revascularize the left subclavian artery during thoracic endovascular aortic repair.
PURPOSE To present early and midterm results of the periscope endograft (PG) technique to maintain left subclavian artery (LSA) blood flow in thoracic endovascular aortic repairs (TEVAR) involving zone 3. METHODS From April 2010 to January 2013, 14 consecutive high-risk patients (11 men; mean age 70±8 years, range 56-87) underwent TEVAR with the PG technique for 10 thoracic aortic aneurysms (...
