The aim of our study was to evaluate the role of multilayer stents (MLS)
in the therapeutic arsenal of complex aortic pathologies for frail patients
combining several comorbidities that are initially objected to the conventional
surgical treatment. Since March 2012, we conducted a monocentric prospective
study on a series of 41 procedures, performed on 41 aortic lesion locations in38 patients treated with multilayer stents.
The series was divided into four
groups. The first group included 21 cases: 20 thoracoabdominal aneurysms and
one aneurysm of the entire descending thoracic aorta. The second group included
7 cases of juxta/infra renal aneurysms, the third group included 5 cases of
false aneurysms and the fourth group included 8 cases of aortic dissecting
hematoma (first subgroup: 6 cases) or extended dissections (second subgroup: 2
cases). Read more>>>>>>>>>>>>
