Distal stent-graft induced new entry after TEVAR or FET - insights into a new disease from EuREC.

CONCLUSIONS: dSINE after TEVAR/ FET is not rare and occurs with similar incidence after acute and chronic aortic dissection- early and late. Avoiding oversizing in the acute and in the chronic setting as well as carefully selecting patients for TEVAR in post-dissection aneurysmal formation will aid in reducing the incidence of dSINE to a minimum.
