4 Figure 3 Representative CT images of chronic dissection after TEVAR. Preoperative images of the thoracic (A) and abdominal (B) aorta, and postoperative (15 months) images of the thoracic (C) and abdominal (D) aorta. Although thrombosis of the FL and decreased total aorta size are confirmed in the thoracic descending aorta, the FL is patent in the abdominal aorta.
