Delayed disseminated intravascular coagulopathy post thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR)

Disseminated intravascular coagulopathy (DIC) is a very rare outcome post endovascular repair of aortic aneurysm dissections. We present a case of a 70-year-old male who presented with DIC post a thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) procedure due to a type 1A endoleak. Initially, the patient was treated with red blood cells and blood products; however, when failing to improve, he underwent a hybrid arch replacement. In this study, we will analyze the management of DIC post TEVAR and look at its presentation more extensively, as it is currently a topic that is poorly studied.
