Aortic dissection, Stent graft, Thoracic endovascular aortic repair, Complications, Retrograde type A dissection
Total debranching and endovascular aortic repair (46-42-200 Bolton RelayPro) were performed in a fragile 69-year-old patient to treat a 65-mm arch aneurysm (A). Three-months postoperatively (B), an asymptomatic retrograde dissection involving the ascending aorta (46×49 mm) was detected at the Computed Angio Tomography (CTA). Because of his comorbidities, he was conservatively managed and died from pulmonary carcinoma 2 years thereafter (C).
