Abstract
Traumatic descending thoracic aorta pseudo aneurysms have been treated traditionally with open surgery in
the past, which have had noticeable rates of mortality and morbidity. A safer method of treatment for this disease
is made possible with recent progress in endovascular treatment techniques. In this article, we present three
cases of Traumatic descending thoracic aorta pseudo aneurysms that were treated with Thoracic endovascular
aortic repair (TEVAR) and discharged from our clinic without any complication.
