Endovascular repair of traumatic descending thoracic aortic disruptions: should endovascular therapy become the gold standard?

abstract：:Recent reports have established the feasibility and safety of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stent placement in the treatment of innominate artery occlusive disease. Although the long-term durability of these endovascular approaches has not been clearly established, they are particularly attractive in patie...
