摘要
A 74-year-old man with chronic aortic dissection was treated with an endovascular stent graft, fabricated from expanded polytetrafluoroethylene and a Z-stent. It was placed in the true lumen to close an entry tear. Closure was obtained immediately and thrombosis of the false lumen at the descending thoracic aorta was observed on computed tomography (CT) obtained 1 week later. No procedure-related complications developed. The patient is doing well with no adverse events including aortic rupture or aortic branch ischemia.
