Abstract:
Objective To investigate the surgical indication,complication management and therapeutic effect in treating Stanford B aortic dissection by using endovascular graft exclusion (EVGE).Methods Eight patients with Stanford B aortic dissection who underwent the procedure of mini-traumatic EVGE from April 2002 to April 2003 were analyzed.Tubular graft stents were introduced over the entry tear of aorta via the femoral or iliac artery.The lengths of the graft stents were 97-99mm and the diameters 34-42mm.Results The procedure was technically successful in all patients and no severe complications occurred during the perioperative period. All patients were alive with no delayed endoleak found during the follow-up of an average of (9.5?4.6) months.Conclusion EVGE is safe and efficient for Stanford B aortic dissection and it can be the first choice for treating these patients.
