Abstract: | We describe our successful management of two patients who suffered complications after stent grafting for Type B aortic dissections. One patient was found to have stent-graft migration, which we treated with repeat aortic stent grafting, and the other patient had a proximal endoleak and total occlusion of the stent graft, which we treated with open surgical repair. We discuss the measures used to assist us in deciding on the most appropriate surgery, as well as the treatment alternatives. |
