Inflammatory Response and Renal Function Following Endovascular Repair of the Descending Thoracic Aorta

Abstract

Endograft implantation in the thoracic aorta may propagate an inflammatory response during the early postoperative period. No clinical adverse events related to the increased inflammatory response were observed. Renal function does not seem to be deteriorated after TEVAR in the descending thoracic aorta.
