摘要
The authors have seen four cases of asymptomatic delayed intimal injury adjacent to a stent graft diagnosed 7 to 16 mouths after thoracic endovascular aortic repair. Endovascular repeat intervention Was successfully performed in three of the four cases as, described in the present report. A second consecutive %26quot;intimal blowout%26quot; in one patient remains under close radiologic surveillance. Possible causes for the intimal blowouts, including stent-graft size, landing zone anatomy, and intrinsically weak aortic tissue, are discussed.
