Abstract
Type B aortic dissections complicated by pain, malperfusion, or aneurysm expansion mandate surgical intervention. Success of this therapy is predicated on exclusion and thrombosis of the false lumen of the aneurysm. This report presents a case in which cessation of flow was achieved using a covered stent graft to close a renal reentry tear after a previous closing and overstenting of the main tear. This approach may provide a helpful adjunct to the endovascular treatment of complicated type B aortic dissections.
