Stent graft infection (SGI) caused by complex is rare. The usage of ascending-to-descending aortic bypass (ADAB) in such situations has not yet been fully discussed. Case report and literature review. We describe a case of SGI caused by complex after multiple surgical interventions because of an injury from a fall. The successful management encompassed thoracic endovascular aortic repair, antibiotic agents, device removal, and ADAB. Our report highlights the ADAB technique in addressing the progression of infection after multiple minimally invasive thoracic procedures for emergent thoracic trauma. The ADAB technique could be considered a viable option in certain clinical scenarios in SGI.

Background: Extra-anatomic ascending-to-descending aortic bypass grafts have historically been utilized as a safe and effective solution for repairs of complex coarctation of the aorta. However, reports on reoperation in these patients remain rare. We present a case of an aortic valve replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting in a patient with an extra-anatomic ascending-to-descending aortic bypass graft.

Background: Patients with Turner syndrome (TS) face an increased risk of developing aortic dilatation (AD), but diagnosing AD in children presents greater complexity compared to adults. This study aimed to investigate the application of various assessment indicators of AD in Chinese children and adolescents with TS.
Methods: This study included TS patients admitted to Shenzhen Children's Hospital from 2017 to 2022.
