The development of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has allowed a minimally invasive approach for management of an array of thoracic aortic pathologies. Initially developed specifically for exclusion of thoracic aortic aneurysms, TEVAR is now used as an alternative to open surgery for a variety of disease pathologies due to the lower morbidity of this approach. Advances in endograft technology continue to broaden the applications of this technique.
胸主动脉腔内修复术(TEVAR)的发展为一系列胸主动脉疾病的治疗提供了一种微创方法。TEVAR最初是专门为排除胸主动脉瘤而开发的,由于这种方法的发病率较低,现在它被用作多种疾病病理的开放手术替代方案。血管内移植物技术的进步继续拓宽了该技术的应用范围。
