Product Description
Traditional treatment of diseases of the thoracic aorta has involved high-risk surgery requiring a large incision in the chest to place a synthetic graft to repair the diseased artery. This method can result in long hospital stays and painful recoveries. Today, the medical community is seeking less invasive alternatives to this major open surgical approach.

The revolutionary GORE TAG Thoracic Endoprosthesis means physicians now have a minimally invasive option for safely and effectively managing patients with aneurysms of the descending thoracic aorta.
