Impact on early outcome after endovascular repair of type B dissection without proximal landing zone using Castor single-branched stent graft-a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The early safety and efficacy of Castor branch stents have been demonstrated. However, the effect of aortic arch morphology on endovascular therapy remains an unresolved issue. This study aims to assess the impact of aortic arch morphology on the early outcomes of endovascular repair using Castor stent graft in patients who have acute type B aortic dissection involving the left subclavian artery (LSA).

Methods

This is a retrospective cohort study. From January 2019 to December 2021, forty-one patients scheduled for thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) of TBADs from Beijing Anzhen Hospital were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study and divided into two groups based on the length of the proximal landing zone left common carotid artery-LSA (PLZ LCCA-LSA)
