Endovascular Repair of Blunt Thoracic Aortic Trauma: Is Postimplant Hypertension an Incidental Finding?

Lower age and SCA coverage may contribute to the development of postimplant hypertension. Further larger cohort studies are warranted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of postimplant hypertension.
