Background: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become the preferred
intervention for managing traumatic thoracic aortic injury. The literature suggests that TEVAR …

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: Conventional surgery for thoracic aortic emergencies, such as contained or
free rupture of thoracic aortic aneurysms, acute type B dissections, and traumatic rupture of …

The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate mid-and long-term results of
endovascular stent-graft placement for emergency repair of acute traumatic thoracic aortic …

Traumatic thoracic aortic disruption is a life-threatening lesion associated with a high
surgical mortality. Endovascular stent graft repair is a minimal invasive approach that does …

We report an endovascular approach that was used to treat two patients with previous
thoracic aortic repair or endovascular repair (TEVAR) for blunt thoracic aortic injury. The first …

Importance Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has been adopted rapidly for
treating traumatic thoracic aortic injury (TAI). The long-term durability and efficacy remain …

Background Traumatic rupture of the thoracic aorta is a life-threatening event. Open surgical
repair is the 'gold standard', but is associated with high mortality and morbidity rates …

Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has evolved as a treatment option for the
management of thoracic aortic trauma as an alternative to open thoracic aortic repair …

Purpose To analyze the impact of stent-graft design on the outcome of endovascular repair
of acute traumatic thoracic aortic transection. Methods Forty-eight patients (38 men; mean …
