1 Staged endovascular stent grafts for concurrent mobile/ulcerated thrombi of thoracic and abdominal aorta causing recurrent spontaneous distal embolization  Wayne W. Zhang, MD, Ahmed M. Abou-Zamzam, MD, Mazen Hashisho, MD, J. David Killeen, MD, Christian Bianchi, MD, Theodore H. Teruya, MD  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 47, Issue 1, Pages (January 2008) DOI: /j.jvs Copyright © 2008 The Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Computed tomography (CT) scan with intravenous contrast showed a mobile thrombus attached to the medial wall of the descending thoracic aorta. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2008 The Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 CT scan revealed ulcerated thrombus in the infrarenal abdominal aorta. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2008 The Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

4 Fig 3 Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) located the mobile thrombus attached to the medial wall of the descending thoracic aorta (arrow), which was consistent with the CT findings. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2008 The Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

5 Fig 4 Follow-up CT scan with reconstruction demonstrated that the stent grafts were in good position (A); and thoracic and abdominal thrombi were completely excluded (B). Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2008 The Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions
