Abstract
False lumen stent graft implantation is an infrequent but intractable complication of surgery for dissection. Surgery has a high rate of morbidity and mortality. We report the case of a 28-year-old patient with complicated type A aortic dissection (TAAD) who developed acute visceral malperfusion after implantation of a stent graft into the false lumen. The patient underwent urgent endovascular revision involving septal fenestration and distal extension of the stent graft into the true lumen. Clinical Impact This technology is a good supplement to the clinical practice, providing a new solution to the problem of stent placement in the prosthetic cavity, avoiding the patient to have another surgical operation, which is good for both medicine and patients.
