Aneurysmal dilation of the reimplant segment of the visceral vessels after thoracoabdominal aneurysm correction
Abstract
We present a case of aneurysmal dilation of the aortic residual segment, involving abdominal vessels in corrective surgeries for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm, through the identification of risk groups for recurrent dilation, aiming at using a specific operative technique with a branched graft, to prevent aneurysm relapse.
