Emergency stent graft deployment for acute aortic rupture following primary stenting for aortic coarctation

We present a case of endovascular stenting for aortic recoarctation complicated by acute aortic rupture, which was successfully treated by emergency stent graft deployment. This case illustrates the potential serious complication that can occur during aortic stent dilatation and how the prompt deployment of a stent graft helped to change the clinical outcome of this life-threatening situation.
