Though stenoses of the descending aorta and its branches are seen with congenital anomalies or systemic inflammation, occlusion of the descending aorta is extremely rare. A patient with an occluded hypoplastic descending thoracic aorta required re-operation because of graft failure between the descending thoracic aorta and the infrarenal abdominal aorta. The etiology of the aortic occlusion in this case is unknown, but inflammation, such as Takayasu disease, is speculated.
尽管降主动脉及其分支的狭窄可见于先天性异常或全身性炎症，但降主动脉闭塞极为罕见。一名降胸主动脉发育不全并闭塞的患者因降胸主动脉与肾下腹主动脉之间的移植物衰竭而需要再次手术。该病例中主动脉闭塞的病因不明，但推测可能是诸如大动脉炎之类的炎症。
