Endovascular Aortic Repair For Thoracic Aortic Injuries
Traumatic aortic injury (TAI) or aortic transection is the second most common cause of death after blunt trauma. The conventional management approach towards a thoracic aortic injury is open thoracotomy and surgical repair; however, there is a recent increase in the trend towards the use of endovascular approach in this regard, particularly in the ...

Emergency rescue stent grafting for a ruptured degenerated graft that bypassed coarctation of the aorta: a case report [PDF]
A 33-year-old man who had undergone bypass from the distal aortic arch to the proximal descending thoracic aorta with a Dacron graft to treat coarctation of the aorta 20 years prior presented to the emergency department with massive hemoptysis.

Endovascular repair of thoracic aortic aneurysm
A thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a potentially life-threatening condition with structural weakness of the aortic wall, which can progress to arterial dilatation and rupture. Today, both an increasing awareness of vascular disease and the access to tomographic imaging facilitate the diagnosis of TAA even in an asymptomatic stage.

Thoracic endovascular aortic repair for traumatic aortic transection [PDF]
Traumatic transection of the thoracic aorta is a highly morbid injury. Treatment may be delayed while attention focuses on concomitant injuries. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is effective but remains controversial in these often-young patients.

Aortic pseudoaneurysm (PsA) is a rare but serious condition that has high mortality and morbidity rates if untreated. We report a rare case of leaking aortic-arch PsA repaired by thoracic endovascular aortic repair using graft stent with the chimney ...

Complications and Management of the Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair [PDF]
AbstractEndovascular treatment in thoracic aortic diseases has increased in use exponentially since Dake and colleagues first described the use of a home-made transluminal endovascular graft on 13 patients with descending thoracic aortic aneurysm at Stanford University in the early 1990s.
