Endovascular repair of the thoracic or thoraco-abdominal aorta following the frozen elephant trunk Procedure

CONCLUSIONSSecond-stage endovascular repair after previous fET is feasible with good mid-term results. This staged hybrid procedure is extremely effective in patients whose aneurysms are confined both to the arch and thoraco-abdominal aorta leading to an excellent functional result. In case of favorable anatomy endovascular repair in residual type B aortic dissection lead to complete false lumen thrombosis.
