endovascular surgery. It is most effective when used for type B cases. “The experts recommend TEVAR for complicated type B aortic dissection” (Barone). YEVAR stands for thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair, and it is far less invasive than having open heart surgery (Barone). I realize that this would appeal to most people because they can still be treated with other options if so fail or are too risky.
