Abstract

Potential endovascular therapy for acute aortic dissection presenting with the proximal entry tear in the distal ascending aorta or aortic arch is a matter for debate. Besides the treatment modality, this is usually such a critical condition and necessitates prompt, life saving management. In the paper by Liu et al., entitled “Clinical outcomes of distal tapered restrictive covered stent applied in endovascular treatment of aortic dissection involving Zone 0”,1 the authors primarily looked at mid term outcome of the distal aorta regarding the potential occurrence of SINE (stent graft induced new entry), for which a restricted covered stent was inserted for prevention.
