Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair of complex aortic aneurysms requires incorporation of side branches using specially designed aortic stent grafts with fenestrations, directional branches, or parallel stent grafts. These techniques have been increasingly used and reported in the literature. The purpose of this document is to clarify and to update terminology, classification systems, measurement techniques, and end point definitions that are recommended for reports dealing with endovascular repair of complex abdominal and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms involving the renal and mesenteric arteries.

Coronary vasospasm involves constriction of the coronary arteries and has been described after manipulation of the coronary arteries (ie, after stenting or bypass grafting). This report details the case of a 57-year-old man who presented with an endoleak after thoracic endovascular aortic repair. He underwent a frozen elephant trunk procedure and postoperatively had diffuse coronary vasospasm, demonstrated on pre- and post-vasospasm cardiac catheterization.

Background: DeBakey type I aortic dissections (AD) are most frequently treated with hemiarch repair. A subset of patients demonstrates persistent distal end-organ ischemia secondary to persistent true lumen (TL) compression. We describe the use of bare metal stent grafting across the residual arch dissection with the Zenith Dissection Endovascular Stent (ZDES, Cook Medical) in 7 patients with type I AD that was repaired in a hemiarch configuration with a compromised distal TL and organ malperfusion.

We report on a successful thoracic endovascular aortic repair for perigraft seroma (PGS) after ascending aorta replacement (AAR). An 82-year-old man underwent AAR. Two years after the operation, computed tomography showed a 75-mm PGS around the ascending aorta.

Ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm may pose significant risk for reoperative repair. We describe an 18-year-old man who presented with bacteremia and a large, mycotic ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm 3 months after redo cardiac surgery. A covered stent graft sealed the pseudoaneurysm neck and facilitated safe reentry into the mediastinum.

A 39-year-old man with past medical history of type A aortic dissection presented to the emergency department with hematemesis, hypotension, and tachycardia. Imaging revealed an aortoesophageal fistula. The patient was taken emergently for thoracic endovascular aortic repair to cover the area of potential fistula.
