Modular aortic arch prosthetic assembly and method of use thereof
摘要:
A prosthetic assembly configured for endovascular placement within an aortic arch and method of use thereof. The prosthetic assembly includes a proximal aortic stent-graft prosthesis configured to be positioned within a proximal portion of the aortic arch adjacent to the brachiocephalic artery, a distal aortic stent-graft prosthesis configured to be positioned within a distal portion of the aortic arch adjacent to the left subclavian artery, a first branch stent-graft prosthesis configured to be positioned within the brachiocephalic artery and a second branch stent-graft prosthesis configured to be positioned in one of the left common carotid and the left subclavian artery. When deployed, a proximal end of the first branch stent-graft prosthesis is disposed within a lumen of the proximal aortic stent-graft prosthesis to proximally displace the ostium of the brachiocephalic artery. When deployed, a proximal end of the distal aortic stent-graft prosthesis is disposed within the distal end of the proximal aortic stent-graft prosthesis to form an overlap between the proximal and distal aortic stent-graft prostheses. The overlap is relatively increased by the first branch stent-graft prosthesis proximally displacing the ostium of the brachiocephalic artery.
