Endovascular Aortic Repair For Thoracic Aortic Injuries

open access: yesJournal of the College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan, 2018
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

open access: yesArchives of Medical Science, 2010
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.

Effectiveness of Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair for Blunt Thoracic Aortic Injury

open access: yesAnnals of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2023
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 ...
