Abstract
We report a case of a 56-year-old male who underwent Frozen Elephant Trunk procedure for residual type A chronic aortic dissection, complicated by the release of the distal endovascular portion of the hybrid prosthesis in the false lumen. This complication was successfully treated with a totally endovascular approach.
