Abstract
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair has become the first-line treatment modality for descending thoracic aortic diseases. Coverage of the aortic arch branches is often required to extend the proximal seal zones during thoracic endovascular aortic repair. The thoracic branch endoprosthesis (TBE) is the first US Food and Drug Administration-approved branched device for thoracic endovascular repair allowing for incorporation of the left subclavian artery. Type IA endoleak after zone 2 TBE as well as its rescue options have not been well-described. In this report, we describe two cases of failed zone 2 TBE with a type IA endoleak, rescued with proximal extension zone 0 TBE to create a sandwiched double TBE configuration. Technical considerations as well as the limitations of this technique are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques is a surgical journal dedicated to publishing peer review high quality case reports, vascular images and innovative techniques related to all aspects of arterial, venous, and lymphatic diseases and disorders, including vascular trauma, malformations, wound care and the placement and maintenance of arterio-venous dialysis accesses with an emphasis on the practicing clinician. The Journal seeks to provide novel and timely information to vascular surgeons, interventionalists, phlebologists, wound care specialists, and allied health professionals involved with the management of patients with the entire spectrum of vascular disorders.
