Abstract

Ruptured descending thoracic aortic aneurysm (rDTAA) is a rare but serious disease. Open surgical repair was previously the gold standard in treatment which is associated high morbidity and mortality rates. Endovascular thoracic aortic aneurysm repair (TEVAR) have developed with lower morbidity and mortality compared with surgery. However, TEAVR has its own limitations and is still a high-risk method. At Viet Duc University Hospital, we have applied this method for many years. We report a case of death following TEAVR for rDTAA, and review the literature with focusing on early complications of this technique.
