Stent-graft repair of penetrating atherosclerotic ulcers in the descending thoracic aorta: mid-term results.
Ann Thorac Surg. 2004; (1): 81-6
Localized aortic pathoanatomic abnormalities are good targets for endovascular stent-grafting but only short-term results have been reported. Our objective was to determine the effectiveness of endovascular stent-graft treatment of patients with descending thoracic atherosclerotic penetrating atherosclerotic ulcers (PAU) and to identify risk factors for treatment failure.
