Abstract
Traumatic descending thoracic aorta pseudoaneurysm has been treated traditionally with open surgery in the past, which had noticeable rates of mortality and morbidity. A safer less invasive method of treatment for this disease is made possible with recent progress in endovascular treatment techniques. We present three cases of traumatic descending thoracic aorta pseudo aneurysm that were treated with Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) and were discharged from our clinic without any complication.
