Abstract
Endovascular repair of the descending thoracic aorta has gained widespread acceptance as a primary treatment modality for thoracic aortic disease due to its minimally invasive approach and improved survival rates. GORE® TAG® Conformable Thoracic Stent Graft was designed for descending thoracic aortic aneurysms, penetrating ulcers, aortic transections and type B aortic dissections, which are accepted indications for endovascular therapy. The aim of this review is to summarize the clinical literature, focusing mainly on the publications that came from manufacturer's pre-market and post-market studies. Including the Global Registry for Endovascular Aortic Treatment (GREAT), sponsored by WL Gore & Associates (Flagstaff, AZ, USA), which is a large database of endovascular repair of various thoracic, abdominal and thoraco-abdominal aortic pathologies to identify and evaluate only those with isolated thoracic aortic pathology (arch and descending thoracic).
