Retrograde Type A　Acute Aortic Dissection with Cerebral Malperfusion Six Years after Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair

Abstract

A 59-year-old male with prior thoracic endovascular aortic repair presented with altered mental status. Magnetic resonance imaging showed cerebral infarction, and subsequent computed tomography revealed acute type A aortic dissection and right carotid artery occlusion. He underwent total arch replacement with right carotid artery bypass. After successful intervention, he was transferred to a rehabilitation facility for further improvement.
