Clinical Validation of the Impact of Branch Stent Extension on Hemodynamics in ISF-TEVAR Involving LSA Reconstruction.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The study of hemodynamics regarding thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is helpful to improve the surgical efficacy.

Objective

Correlations between hemodynamic changes and branch stent extension length and interference factors for branch stent extension length of in situ fenestration TEVAR (ISF-TEVAR) involving the left subclavian artery (LSA) were evaluated.

Materials and methods

This study retrospectively analyzed 196 patients with Stanford type B aortic dissection who received in situ laser fenestrated thoracic endovascular aortic repair with LSA fenestration from April 2014 to March 2021. Branch stent extension to the main stent graft was evaluated by the computed tomographic angiography (CTA). Hemodynamic change of LSA was defined
