Title: Endovascular stenting of a leaking thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm. Author: Ashraf O, Ali SA, Tanveer-ul-Haq, Sharif H. Journal: J Coll Physicians Surg Pak; 2006 Nov; 16(11):732-3. PubMed ID: 17052428. Abstract: Rupture of an aortic aneurysm is a major cause of early mortality during the course of disease. A less invasive approach with fewer complications is sought.

This report indicates prospects for employment of endovascular stenting as a suitable alternative to surgery in a growing variety of settings.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
