Abstract
The anatomic complexity of aortic dissection remains a challenge in endovascular treatment. The dissection flap may contain defects allowing accidental guidewire passage from one lumen into the other, and inadvertent device placement into the false lumen can occur. The description of this complication and its bailout maneuvers are sparse in the literature. Herein, we describe 7 patients with errant endoprosthesis rerouted with minimally invasive intervention into the true lumen.
