Midterm Results of Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair in Patients With Aneurysms Involving the Descending Aorta Originating From Chronic Type B Dissections

Midterm results of TEVAR in patients with aneurysms involving the descending aorta originating from chronic type B dissections are good. The self-expanding capability of the stent grafts is sufficient over time. However, extensive coverage of the descending aorta is warranted to achieve success. Further studies are needed to extend our knowledge in this particular subgroup of patients.
