Background The authors present two cases with type B aortic dissection initially treated by endovascular stent graft who developed aortic complications posttreatment and required surgical treatment. Case Description A 50-year-old woman and a 65-year-old man underwent endovascular treatment for thoracic aortic aneurysm associated with type B dissection and —both of them evolved with endoleak type 1. The first case was related to aortobronchial fistula, and the second one was associated with ascending aortic aneurysm. An extra-anatomical ascending aorta-supraceliac aorta bypass grafting was decided due to the persistent leak. Conclusion Surgery is an excellent choice for complex complications after thoracic endovascular aortic repair with previous failed attempts of endovascular resolution.

An aortic aneurysm is an abnormal dilation of the aorta to greater than 1.5 times its normal size. They usually cause no symptoms except when ruptured. Occasionally, there may be symptoms like abdominal, back, or leg pain. They are most commonly located in the abdominal aorta, but can also be located in the thoracic aorta, rarely in arch of aorta. Abdominal aortic aneurysm is more common in men, a disease that is often asymptomatic and has up to a 90% risk of mortality if the aneurysm ruptures. It can be easily diagnosed by an ultrasound screening, and if the aneurysm is > 5.5 cm, it can be surgically repaired to prevent a life-threatening rupture. Aneurysm of the ascending aorta is rare but can be easily diagnosed by echocardiogram.
