Retrograde type A dissection can occur as a complication after thoracic endovascular repair for Stanford type B aortic dissection
In order to investigated the possible mechanical reasons of the new entry occurring when stent grafts were implanted into the true lumen of one type B aortic dissection, a framework of virtual implantation of stent-graft by using finite element simulations was developed in this paper
