Predicting Distal Aortic Remodeling After Endovascular Repair for Chronic DeBakey III Aortic Dissection

Conclusions TEVAR is feasible in chronic dissection but is limited by complex dissection-related anatomy. Increasing number of visceral vessels off the false lumen, maximum preoperative aortic size, and location of the primary tear on the greater curve were associated with poorer remodeling.
