Abstract

Thoracic endovascular repair for type IIIb aortic dissection results in the disappearance of false lumen perfusion in the abdominal aorta in only about 20% of cases, with concern for expansion in the long term. Staged endovascular therapy with intervention on all re-entries can lead to complete false lumen thrombosis and remodelling of the entire aorta. This approach could be an option in cases in which long-term expansion is anticipated.
