1 Midterm Change of Descending Aortic False Lumen After Repair of Acute Type I Dissection 
Kay-Hyun Park, MD, PhD, Cheong Lim, MD, PhD, Jin Ho Choi, MD, Euisuk Chung, MD, Sang Il Choi, MD, PhD, Eun Ju Chun, MD, PhD, Kiick Sung, MD, PhD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 87, Issue 1, Pages (January 2009) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2009 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 False lumen (FL) patency was recorded at five levels in each patient: the mid portion of the arch, bifurcation of the pulmonary artery, lower cardiac border, celiac trunk, and lower border of the left kidney. (A) Thoracic aortic false lumen was recorded as patent if all or upper two levels had patent false lumen, and abdominal aortic false lumen was recorded as patent if one of two levels had patent false lumen. (B) Partially thrombosed false lumen was recorded as patent. (C) Separately in thoracic and abdominal segments, widths of true and false lumens were measured at the level where the aortic diameter is largest. (T = true lumen width; F = false lumen width; T + F = diameter of the aorta.)

3 Fig 2 Characteristics of the thoracic aortic false lumen (FL) in the early and the last computed tomography (CT) postoperative images. (TL = true lumen.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2009 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

4 Fig 3 Characteristics of the abdominal aortic false lumen (FL) in the early and the last computed tomography (CT) postoperative images. The abdominal aorta was not dissected in the remaining two patients. (TL = true lumen.)

5 Fig 4 Later change of the descending aortic lesion according to early postoperative profile of the false lumen. (AAA = abdominal aortic aneurysm; TAAA = thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm.)
