Thoraco-Abdominal Aneurysm Repair

What Is a Thoraco-Abdominal Aneurysm?

The most complex and dangerous of all aneurysms is the thoraco-abdominal aneurysm. A thoraco-abdominal aneurysm is an extensive aneurysm of both the thoracic aorta and the abdominal aorta.

Surgical repair can be performed, but carries a high morbidity and mortality. The surgeons at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital are experts in repair of these highly complex aneurysms, often utilizing a combination of both open and endovascular techniques for these highly complex aneurysms.
