  • Title: A multilayer stent in the aorta may not seal the aneurysm, thereby leading to rupture.
    Author: Lazaris AM, Maheras AN, Vasdekis SN.
    Journal: J Vasc Surg; 2012 Sep; 56(3):829-31. PubMed ID: 22819304.
    Abstract:
    The multilayer stents are occasionally used for the treatment of complicated aortic aneurysms, including thoracoabdominal aneurysms. No aneurysm-related mortality among patients treated with this technique has been described in the literature to date. We describe a case of rupture of an aortic aneurysm previously treated with a multilayer stent.
