Abstract

Total debranching thoracic endovascular aortic repair is useful for avoiding neurological complications in cases where cardiopulmonary bypass is difficult and for devising an intraoperative cervical branch reconstruction method.

Keywords: abdominal aortic aneurysm; cardiopulmonary bypass; thoracic aortic aneurysm.

A CT angiogram reveals a saccular TAA (70 mm) (A) and an infrarenal AAA (65 mm) (B). The postoperative CT angiogram shows total debranching thoracic endovascular aortic repair of the TAA (C) and endovascular aortic repair of the AAA (D), excluding the aortic aneurysm. The patency of the great SVG is also confirmed (C). AAA, abdominal aortic aneurysm; CT, computed tomography; SVG, saphenous vein graft; TAA, thoracic aortic aneurysm
