title: [Our methods and techniques of thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair].
abstract: Thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) is acquiring an established role as treatment for thoracic aortic aneurysm. It may be no exaggeration that TEVAR is a standard procedure, especially for decending aortic aneurysm. Furthermore we consider that aortic debranching with TEVAR for aortic arch or thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm is very useful, and we aggressively perform TEVAR for them. We describe our methods and techniques of TEVAR.
