Abstract
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 patient was a 38-year-old man who presented with distal intragraft thrombosis 24 months after TEVAR. The second patient, a 32-year-old man, developed a symptomatic distal device collapse at 39th month follow-up, associated with buttock claudication. Both patients were offered an endograft relining, complicated in the first case by distal embolizationI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
