Preclinical Evaluation of a Modular Inner-Branched Stent Graft to Reconstruct the Left Subclavian Artery in Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair: Experimental Study in Pigs.

This device is the first modular device designed to treat TBAD adjacent to LSA in China. This device is a modular two-component system consisting of aAnchor Anchorthoracic aortic stent graft with a Anchorretrograde inner branch and a Anchorbridging covered stent. The modular design and the retrograde inner branch are the two important innovations of this device. Theoretically, the device could make it easier and safer for clinicians to treat TBAD adjacent to the LSA.
