1 Endovascular Treatment of a Thoracic Aortic Pseudoaneurysm After Previous Open Repair 
Derek R. Brinster, MD, Desirae M. McKee, MD, Dawn M. Olsen, PA, Scott S. Berman, MD, Julio A. Rodriguez-Lopez, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 82, Issue 1, Pages (July 2006) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2006 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 White arrow marks 5 cm × 4 cm × 4 cm pulsatile mass on patient’s left back. Black arrows indicate patient’s previous thoracotomy incision for repair of descending thoracic dissection.

3 Fig 2 Preoperative computed tomography scanning. (A) Three-dimensional reconstruction with white arrow pointing to the area of graft kinking and nipple of extravasation and hatched chevron arrow indicating descending thoracic aortic aneurysm. (B) Saggital imaging with white arrow revealing pseudoaneurysm formation and protruding mass and hatched chevron arrow indicating descending thoracic aortic aneurysm. (C) Axial image revealing contrast enhanced imaging of site of pseudoaneurysm with thrombus formation and bony destruction of rib (white arrow). (D) Coronal image revealing kinked area of graft with “nipple” of extravasation surrounded by thrombus (white arrow).

4 Fig 3 Operative aortogram. (A) White arrow indicates area of graft kinking and pseudoaneurysm formation. (B) Post-repair: white arrow indicates no pseudoaneurysm and mild correction of kinked graft from previous open repair.

5 Fig 4 Postoperative computed tomographic scan reveals (A) successful thoracic aortic stent-graft exclusion of pseudoaneurysm, and (B) successful exclusion of true aneurysm at the level just proximal to the celiac axis.
