Figure 5 (A, B) Axial chest computed tomography (CT) scans with contrast demonstrate appropriate coverage of the dissection by the stent graft, as indicated by the yellow arrow. The images confirm the exclusion of the false lumen and the restoration of blood flow through the true lumen. (C) Coronal chest CT scan with contrast further confirmed the correct positioning of the stent graft, with complete coverage of the dissection flap (yellow arrow). (D) Sagittal chest CT scan with contrast shows the longitudinal extent of the stent graft, highlighting its proper alignment and effective sealing of the entry tear (yellow arrow).
