Abstract
The patient recovered uneventfully after the procedure. Follow up CT aortogram done at 6 weeks demonstrated thrombosis of the false lumen of the descending thoracic aorta. Aorto-oesophageal fistula related to chronic type B aortic dissection is an extremely rare clinical entity and presents a challenge to the treating surgeon. This case demonstrates that selected cases can be judiciously managed by thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair alone.
