Objective To introduce the experience in endovascular stent graft repair (EVSGR) of thoracoabdominal aortic dissecting aneurysm (TAADA). Methods Retrospective analysis was made on the management of 6 patients with TAADA from October 2000 to June 2001. Results There were six male patients aged 42～72 in this series. Of them, 5 patients with Stanford type B TAADA and one with Stanford A TAADA. Of the 6 patients, The fissures were sealed and the dissections were disappeared completely in 5 cases; one case shifted to open surgery for abdominal aortic fenestration, Rupture of the iliac dissection occurred in 1 case 3 days after EVSGR, then the abdominal aortic fenestration and graft replacement of distal abdominal aorta were performed. One patient died of heart infarction on the third day postoperatively. Five cases were followed-up for 1～9 months, they all were alive and well. Conclusions Endovascular stent graft technique is safe and simple in repairing of TAADA, and abdominal aortic fenestration is an adjuvant procedure.
