Early Experience with the Octopus Endovascular Strategy in the Management of Thoracoabdominal Aneurysms

The Octopus endovascular strategy involves placement of multiple, stacked bifurcated grafts in the thoracic segment of a thoracoabdominal aneurysm (TAAA) to facilitate deployment of multiple parallel covered stents for visceral perfusion. This study aimed to review early outcomes of the Octopus TAAA repair strategy at a tertiary, high-volume referral center.
