Figure 2.

Typical acute type B dissection. (A) Angiography and (B) computed tomography clearly show the entry tear (arrow), just beyond left subclavian artery (LSA) origin with contrast filling of false lumen. (C,D) After S-graft deployment at the level of the tear, complete exclusion of the false lumen is achieved and normal flow is reestablished into the true lumen. LSA origin was intentionally covered to gain a better proximal sealing. We note the lack of flexibility in the first generation's stent grafts while we are expecting a better remodeling performance with more flexible devices of the next generation.
