چکیده

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 thoracic aortic rupture.

Thoracic Endovascular Repair for Complicated Type B Acute Aortic Dissection with Distal Malperfusion

Successful thoracic endovascular repair for complicated Stanford type B acute aortic dissection in two patients is herein reported. The true lumen flow was immediately restored following stent graft deployment in the descending thoracic aorta with subsequent resolution of the distal malperfusion syndrome. One patient is doing well more than 15 months after surgery and another patient who was tr...

Placement of Endovascular Stent Graft in Acute Malperfusion Syndrome After Acute Type II Aortic Dissection

Acute malperfusion syndrome is a serious complication of acute aortic dissection. A 76-year-old female patient was admitted with acute type B aortic dissection and developed renal malperfusion during medical therapy. We are reporting a clinically successful result from the thoracic endovascular aortic repair used for malperfusion syndrome that occurred by acute type B aortic dissection.

Delayed visceral malperfusion after Bentall procedure for type A acute aortic dissection.

Rapid restoration of flow into the true lumen and obliteration of a false lumen is considered the optimal approach to treating malperfusion syndrome due to acute aortic dissection. However, organ malperfusion can occasionally persist after proximal aortic graft replacement despite redirecting blood flow into the true lumen. A 35-year old man underwent the modified Bentall procedure for Stanford...

Application of triple-branched stent graft for Stanford type A aortic dissection: potential risks.

OBJECTIVES A new surgical technique named triple-branched stent graft was developed and reported to have excellent clinical results for Stanford type A aortic dissection. However, we found some potential risks, in our experience, of this technique. We compared this technique with total arch replacement combined with stented elephant trunk implantation in patients with acute Stanford type A diss...
