OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the early outcomes of patients undergoing thoracic endovascular
aortic repair for blunt thoracic aortic injuries. METHODS: A prospective, nonrandomized …

Background Several publications have documented the technical feasibility and efficacy of
stent grafting for aortic injuries. We report short-and mid-term results of thoracic …

BACKGROUND: Despite a lack of level I evidence, endovascular stent grafting is frequently
used for the treatment of blunt thoracic aortic injury. The purpose of this study is to compare …

Thoracic aorta blunt injury (BAI) is a highly lethal lesion. A large number of victims die before
obtaining emergency care. Thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) is a less …

Blunt traumatic aortic injury is a highly fatal injury caused from rapid deceleration of the
thorax. Most victims do not survive to obtain emergency medical care. Immediate open …

Objective Consistent long-term follow-up data of thoracic endovascular repair (TEVAR) for
