Multicenter clinical trial of the conformable stent graft for the treatment of acute, complicated type B dissection

摘要

Objective: The treatment of acute, complicated type B aortic dissection has evolved in the past several decades. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair when anatomy is suitable, has been regarded as the preferable treatment to seal the primary entry tear, redirect and re-establish adequate true lumen flow, and thereby promote aortic remodeling. This study was designed to determine the safety and efficacy of a conformable thoracic endoprosthesis device for patients with acute, complicated type B aortic dissection, defined as malperfusion or rupture or both.
