Abstract
- Endovascular repair for thoracic aortic aneurysm is widespread and recently, the advent of new device-fenestrated stent graft enables endovascular repair for aortic aneurysm to be close or involved in the orifice of left subclavian artery. However, fenestrated stent graft is not available in Korea. We report herein a case in which endovascular repair for thoracic aortic aneurysm closed to the orifice of left subclavian artery using custom made fenestrated stent graft. The aneurysm was successfully repaired by a total endovascular approach without open surgical repair.
