Abstract:
We report a case with occlusion of multiple branches of the aorta and a pseudoaneurysm due to rupture of a severely calcified non-aneurysmal thoracoabdominal aorta in a patient with Takayasu's disease. The patient was successfully treated by endoluminal stent-grafting without mesenteric ischemia.
