Abstract

Purpose: To compare the midterm results of endovascular treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms and ulcers in patients who received either a 1-component or 2-component Zenith TX2 stent-graft. Methods: Data were gathered from a prospectively maintained registry for the Zenith TX2 pivotal trial. Among 158 patients who underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) between March 2004 and July 2006, 64 received a 1-component stent-graft (group 1) and 94 patients a 2-component device (group 2). Results: In group 2, there were more men (79% vs. 63%; p=0.03), and the patients had more diagnosed (p
