6. Intervention of aortic arch aneurysm using stent-graft fenestration in the brachiocephalic artery
Main Article Content
Abstract
Aortic arch disease is a challenging treatment because it is the originating place of important arteries supplying the head, neck, and upper limbs. In the past, open thoracotomy was the only method of treating this disease. With recent advances in interventional cardiology, the treatment of these lesions has become less invasive and minimizes the complications associated with anesthesia and surgery. A new approach using stent graft of the aortic arch with fenestration to confirm the brachiocephlic artery perfusion was employed, thereby avoiding thoracotomy.
