Covered Stents for True Subclavian Aneurysms in Patients with Degenerative Connective Tissue Disorders

Abstract

Patients with degenerative connective tissue disorders may benefit from less invasive treatment with stent-grafts. The more flexible Viabahn stent-graft may be better able to adapt to arterial tortuosity. However, the long-term results of this new technique have not yet been established.
