Abstract:
:The frozen elephant procedure, as a hybrid method to treat aortic pathologies involving the aortic arch and the proximal descending aorta, has become an accepted treatment option. We report two late fractures of the nitinol stents of the endograft of an early frozen elephant trunk prosthesis. One patient suffered from a tear of the woven polyester fabric, causing a Type III endoleak and rapid progression of the existing descending aortic aneurysm. The patient received replacement of the descending aorta. The second patient showed a fracture of a nitinol stent without further complications during follow-up.
