Does an off-the-shelf multibranch stent graft procedure improve sealing of the false lumen in a patient with chronic type B aortic dissection post-TEVAR?
An off-the-shelf multibranch stent graft can successfully provide comprehensive sealing of entry tears and enhance false lumen thrombosis in patients with chronic type B aortic dissection post-TEVAR.
We report a case of a 51-year-old male with a history of chronic type B aortic dissection status post thoracic endovascular aortic repair who presented with a progressive thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm. The patient underwent a successful off-the-shelf multibranch stent graft procedure for complete sealing of the false lumen, with extensions into visceral and renal arteries. This case highlights the advantages of this technique, offering comprehensive sealing of entry tears and enhanced false lumen thrombosis. Preoperative computed tomography imaging, intraoperative angiographic images, and postoperative computed tomography findings are presented to illustrate the procedure's effectiveness and clinical outcomes.
Yamanouchi et al. (Tue,) conducted a case report in Chronic type B aortic dissection with progressive thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (n=1). Off-the-shelf multibranch stent graft procedure was evaluated on Complete sealing of the false lumen and enhanced false lumen thrombosis. An off-the-shelf multibranch stent graft procedure successfully achieved complete sealing of the false lumen in a patient with chronic type B aortic dissection and prior TEVAR.
