摘要

Aortic dissection involving a right-sided aortic arch (RAA) is extremely rare with an incidence in adults of 0.04％ to 0.1％[1].Thoracic aortic dissection associated with RAA is even a more uncommon and life-threatening condition.For complicated aortic dissection,conventional open surgical repair is considered a standard therapy[2].However,in such cases,endovascular repair has emerged as the procedure of choice as it is associated with favorable short-and midterm results[3].In this study,we present our experience with the use of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) technique for treatment of DeBakey Ⅲ dissection in 4 patients with RAA.All procedures were successfully performed with a Siemens Artis Zeego DSA device.
