Abstract

We describe a case of complex multistep endovascular treatment of a post-Type A thoracoabdominal dissected aneurysm. Volume analysis documents true and false lumen improvements during follow-up. Centerline tortuosity of the aorta and of the iliac arteries straightens after endovascular treatment completion. In addition, analysis of stent-graft remodeling reveals the stent-graft tendency to spring back to its original status together with a caudal migration of the fenestrated body.
