Endovascular entry closure of a late type A aortic dissection after implantation of a self-expanding transcatheter heart valve (Evolut R): a case report.

Presumably, the late TAAD was caused by the supra-annular edge of the Evolut-stent. Because of the extreme risk surgical repair was not an option and a stent graft would have occluded the vein grafts. This case shows that in absence of any other treatment options endovascular closure of the entry to the false lumen can be successfully performed in a TAAD after TAVI.
