2 Fig 1 The relationship between descending thoracic aortic aneurysm extent and perioperative stroke after thoracic endovascular aortic repair. The upper panel presents examples of the extent coverage (A, B, or C) of the descending thoracic aortic aneurysm. The lower panel presents the number of strokes associated with each extent aneurysm. *All of the strokes occurred in patients with extent A or C coverage of the descending thoracic aorta (p < 0.001).
