4 Multidetector computed tomographic volume rendering (A1, B1, and C1) and axial (A2–A4, B2–B4, and C2–C4) images showing dissected thoracic aorta before surgery (A1–A4), after surgical correction with E-vita open prosthesis (B1–B4), and after endovascular stent graft extension (C1–C4). Complete thrombosis of false lumen (arrow), partial expansion of E-vita device (asterisk), and stent graft expansion after endovascular extension (arrowhead) are also shown.
