Long-Term Outcomes and Late Complications of Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair Using the GORE TAG or Conformable GORE TAG
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair using the GORE thoracic aortic graft (TAG) or conformable GORE TAG is a safe and effective procedure for the treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms and aortic dissection. The 30-day mortality rate was 2.86%. During 10 years of follow-up, the overall survival rate was low; however, the risk of aorta-related deaths was also low. No significant differences in freedom from late complications and re-intervention are seen between the TAG and conformable thoracic aortic graft (CTAG) groups. Further investigations into the treatment of late complications are required.
