A Successful Endovascular Technique for Complete False Lumen Thrombosis in Chronic Abdominal Aortic Dissection.

A 66-year-old man presented with an enlarging abdominal aorta false lumen, after type A aortic dissection repair. Residual entries were located at the left renal artery, abdominal aorta, and left external iliac artery. The patient underwent endovascular aortic repair with left renal artery stenting to close the entries. Completion aortography showed no false lumen flow without an endoleak, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography 1 month after the procedure demonstrated complete false lumen thrombosis. A total endovascular approach is possible for abdominal aneurysmal dilation in chronic aortic dissection when all entries can be closed using a one-stage procedure with stent grafts and/or branch stenting.
