Open, hybrid, and endovascular repair of recoarctation, aneurysm, and pseudoaneurysm after aortic coarctation repairCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques
Objective: After aortic coarctation repair, patients may develop peri-anastomotic aneurysms or recoarctation requiring reintervention. We describe the spectrum of late coarctation repair–associated complications, repair strategies, and outcomes. Methods:

Direct access of ascending aorta for endograft delivery in the descending thoracic aorta

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2020
First-line therapy for aneurysm, dissection, or rupture of the descending thoracic aorta is now by the endovascular approach. Retrograde insertion of the endograft, through access from the femoral arteries, is the preferred approach. This case presents a
