Aortic dissection (AD) is a life-threatening disease, and endovascular repair by stent graft is an effective treatment. Surgery often fails for a variety of reasons, such as aortic arch variation. We present the case of a 27-year-old female with aortic dissection with a rare anatomical aortic arch variation caused by chest trauma. This patient recovered well after endovascular repair. This case report demonstrates endovascular repair can be applied to aortic dissection patients with rare anatomical aortic arch variation.
主动脉夹层(AD)是一种危及生命的疾病,血管内修复支架移植物是一种有效的治疗方法。由于各种原因,如主动脉弓变异,手术往往无法进行。我们报告了一例 27 岁女性因胸部外伤引起罕见解剖主动脉弓变异的主动脉夹层病例。该患者经血管内修复后恢复良好。本病例报告表明,血管内修复可应用于罕见解剖主动脉弓变异的主动脉夹层患者。
