Endoscopic Closure Combined With the Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection Technique and Over-the-scope Clip for Chronic Aortoesophageal Fistula: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aortoesophageal fistula (AEF) is a rare but life‐threatening condition. Initial management typically includes thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) or aortic graft replacement to achieve hemostasis, followed by esophagectomy with aortic graft replacement and greater omentum wrapping to eliminate the source of infection.

East Mediterranean Experiences in TEVAR [PDF]
While there are numerous diseases of the thoracic aorta, the two most commonly encountered clinical conditions are dissection and aneurysms. Classic surgical treatment of these conditions is difficult for patients because of its high mortality and morbidity rates, as well as being tiring and laborious for the surgeon. Endovascular methods are therefore
