Traumatic rupture of the thoracic aorta is a leading cause of death, following major blunt trauma, and endovascular repair has evolved as a viable alternative to open repair. This report highlights the role of transesophageal echocardiography as a valuable imaging tool for locating the exact position of the lesion, guiding placement of the endograft, detecting leaks around it and supplementing information derived from angiography during endograft deployment.
胸主动脉创伤性破裂是严重钝性创伤后导致死亡的主要原因之一,而血管腔内修复已发展成为开放性修复的一种可行替代方案。本报告强调了经食管超声心动图作为一种有价值的成像工具的作用,它可用于确定病变的确切位置、指导腔内移植物的放置、检测其周围的渗漏,并在腔内移植物置入过程中补充血管造影所获得的信息。
