Endovascular Stent-Graft Placement of Aneurysms Involving the Descending Aorta Originating From Chronic Type B Dissections

Endovascular stent-graft placement of aneurysms involving the descending aorta originating from chronic type B dissections may serve as a valuable treatment option in this complex pathology. The chronic dissection membrane can be successfully compressed against large areas of the native aortic wall. A sufficient proximal landing zone is mandatory for early and late success.
