    Author: Shingaki M, Kato M, Motoki M, Kubo Y, Isaji T, Okubo N.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2016 Oct; 24(8):805-807. PubMed ID: 27634823.
    Abstract:
    An 86-year-old man with an abdominal aortic aneurysm was diagnosed with type B aortic dissection accompanied by a patent false lumen that started at the distal arch of the thoracic aorta and terminated at the left common iliac artery. Meticulous preoperative assessment detected 3 large intimal tears in the descending aorta, abdominal aortic aneurysm, and left common iliac artery. We performed single-stage thoracic and abdominal endovascular aneurysm repair and concomitant axillary-axillary bypass. The abdominal aortic aneurysm with type B aortic dissection was successfully treated using a single-stage endovascular stent graft, without any complications due to the careful preoperative examinations.
