ABSTRACT
A 65-year-old patient underwent successful transluminally placed endoluminal prosthetic grafts (TPEGs) of a descending thoracic aortic aneurysm (dTAA). Two hours after TPEGs, the patient suddenly complained of chest, back pain and right leg pain. Angiography and computed tomography showed acute type B aortic dissection. Re-TPEGs was immediately performed, and the entry was successfully closed. This case suggests that TPEGs for the treatment of acute aortic dissection may be useful for selected patients.
