Risk factors for distal stent graft-induced new entry in type B aortic dissections: Systematic review and meta-analysis

BackgroundAfter the use of thoracic endovascular aortic repair in the management of type B aortic dissection (TBAD), there has been increasing recognition of the phenomenon of stent graft-induced new entry (SINE) as a late complication of thoracic endovascular aortic repair, with risk factors for SINE identified. We performed a meta-analysis of contemporary studies to establish the risk factors for distal SINE (dSINE).MethodsA systematic search...
