Aortic intramural hematoma accounts for 5% to 20% of patients with acute aortic syndrome. Endovascular grafts have evolved as minimally invasive alternatives for treatment in some highly selected patients. We present the case of a patient who had late complications of a chronic Stanford type A intramural hematoma requiring thoracic endovascular aortic repair. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.)
