Background: Endovascular intervention for chronic symptomatic type B aortic dissection (CS-TBAD) induces aortic wall stress with negative hemodynamic cardiovascular consequences. CS-TBAD risks increased morbidity and mortality due to septum maturation with significant impact on false lumen modulation, and partial lumen thrombosis conveying the worst outcome. The aim of the TIGER technique is total aortic remodeling with true lumen expansion, false lumen regression and complete thrombosis, and stabilization of overall aortic diameter.

Internal examination showed the offending material to be a semi-cylindrical metal fragment, which had lodged within the paravertebral muscle.

This report discusses the observation of multiple retinal emboli following placement of a new carotid stenting device. Especially dense plaques in the carotid artery can shatter into dust-like particles that may be fine enough to penetrate the filter of the new device, thus posing the danger of retinal perfusion.
