Abstract
A 45 year old man was admitted to hospital after follow up computed tomography angiography (CTA) revealed a neointimal tear with a dissection inside the stent graft (A, B, arrow). He had a previous history of SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) infection and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (T-EVAR) using a Hercules stent graft (MicroPort, Shanghai, China) performed because of a type B intramural haematoma with a focal ulcer like projection. Despite the absence of symptoms, the patient underwent a secondary relining T-EVAR using the same type of Hercules stent graft. At one year follow up, no complications or recurrence of the disease were observed, while control CTA showed good aortic remodelling.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery is aimed primarily at vascular surgeons dealing with patients with arterial, venous and lymphatic diseases. Contributions are included on the diagnosis, investigation and management of these vascular disorders. Papers that consider the technical aspects of vascular surgery are encouraged, and the journal includes invited state-of-the-art articles.
Reflecting the increasing importance of endovascular techniques in the management of vascular diseases and the value of closer collaboration between the vascular surgeon and the vascular radiologist, the journal has now extended its scope to encompass the growing number of contributions from this exciting field. Articles describing endovascular method and their critical evaluation are included, as well as reports on the emerging technology associated with this field.
