COMMENTARY: Endovascular Treatment of Residual Aortic Dissection.

摘要

In their article, lannelli et al. report a new strategy to treat residual aortic dissection after surgical replacement of the ascending aorta. They use a new endovascular version of the Djumbodis Dissection System to join the dissected layers in the aortic arch without occlusion of the supra-aortic vessels. The results in these first 3 cases are promising, since the false lumens in the aortic arches have disappeared on computed tomography (CT) controls at 1 year without complication.
