Endovascular Repair of Acute Thoraco-abdominal Aortic Aneurysms.
CONCLUSIONS: EVAR for acute TAAA is associated with acceptable early and mid-term results in patients who have no other treatment options. Only one third of these patients were suitable for the t-Branch device, indicating that further advances in device design are required to treat the majority of acute TAAA patients with commercially available OTS technology.
