Abstract

In 10 patients who had been suffering from uncomplicated type B aortic dissection, TEVAR was performed to close entry with supra-aortic bypass in 7 patients. In all patients, closure of entry tear was confirmed until 3 months after TEVAR with the thrombosed occlusion and shrinkage of false lumen and the expansion of true lumen. However, complete thrombosis of false lumen has not been observed under the level of stent graft placement.
