Managing thoracic aortic pathologies with branched endoprosthesis is growing, but complications like type IA endoleaks are under-documented. This study shows successful coil embolization effectively treats these endoleaks, particularly those caused by large left subclavian artery infundibula.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Interventional Cardiology
- Medical Device Technology
Background:
- Thoracic branched endoprosthesis use is rising for thoracic aortic pathologies.
- Limited literature exists on managing complications associated with these devices.
- Type IA endoleaks can occur due to inadequate sealing zones, especially with large left subclavian artery (LSA) infundibula.

Types of RNA
Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNAs perform diverse functions and can be broadly classified as protein-coding or non-coding RNA. Non-coding RNAs play important roles in the regulation of gene expression in response to developmental and environmental changes. Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes can be manipulated to develop more effective antibacterial drugs for human or animal use.
