# Abdominal endograft collapse due to acute type A aortic dissection

## TL;DR

A rare case of abdominal endograft collapse caused by an acute aortic dissection is reported in a patient previously treated with EVAR.

## Contribution

This case highlights an uncommon complication of EVAR involving proximal endograft collapse due to acute type A aortic dissection.

## Key findings

- Abdominal endograft proximal collapse is a rare complication following EVAR.
- Acute type A aortic dissection can lead to endograft collapse in previously treated patients.
- The case emphasizes the need for vigilance in managing post-EVAR complications.

## Abstract

Endovascular repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm and iliac aneurysm is a safe and valid treatment. However, it is associated with some different complications that may require reinterventions. Among these complications, abdominal endograft proximal collapse is an infrequent event. We report a case of acute type A aortic dissection and abdominal endograft proximal collapse in a patient previously treated with EVAR.
