    Author: Ezure M, Kotsuka Y, Furuse A, Kawauchi M, Kohno T, Kubota H.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 1998 Jan; 65(1):241-3. PubMed ID: 9456125.
    Abstract:
    Endovascular covered stents were successfully applied to temporarily halt hemoptysis and postpone surgical intervention in a 69-year-old man with a ruptured anastomotic false aneurysm of the distal aortic arch. Surgical graft implantation was performed successfully by the elephant trunk technique 14 days after the endovascular stent-grafting, at which time aspiration pneumonia had subsided.
