Type B aortic dissection after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair causing endograft collapse and severe malperfusion
Abstract
We report a unique case of type B aortic dissection occurring 11 weeks after endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. This resulted in severe organ and limb malperfusion with collapse and occlusion of the endograft. Successful endovascular salvage is described along with a brief review of the literature.
