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 ...

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.

Effectiveness of Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair for Blunt Thoracic Aortic Injury
Blunt thoracic aortic injury (BTAI) has a high mortality rate, and the occurrence of clinical complications is high. Several studies have reported the efficacy of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for BTAI. This study aimed to clarify the use of TEVAR for BTAI.We analyzed 10 cases of TEVAR for BTAI from July 2011 to December 2020 at our ...

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.
