Stent graft aims to fix aortic arch without open surgery

NCT ID NCT07691931

First seen Jul 09, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tracks the safety and effectiveness of a stent graft device used to treat aneurysms, dissections, or trauma in the aortic arch (the curved part of the main artery from the heart). Researchers will follow 75 patients in Japan who receive the device, monitoring for complications like stroke, paralysis, device failure, or need for repeat procedures. The goal is to confirm the device works well in real-world use.
