  • Title: Novel temporary endovascular shunt technique to assist in situ fenestration for endovascular reconstruction of the distal aortic arch.
    Author: Xiong J, Guo W, Liu X, Jia X, Ma X, Wang L.
    Journal: J Vasc Surg; 2015 Jul; 62(1):226-8. PubMed ID: 24560242.
    Abstract:
    Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) of arch pathology presents special challenges for revascularization. To obtain an anatomic reconstruction of the arch arteries, in situ fenestration with extra-anatomic bypass has been increasingly used in TEVAR. We report a case involving TEVAR for a pseudoaneurysm at zone 2 of the thoracic aorta in a 37-year-old man with the use of in situ fenestration assisted by a temporary endovascular shunt technique.
