“…As far as we know, there are no such cases of spontaneously occurring AD of Stanford type B in a child that were successfully treated by endovascular means. The literature includes a few cases of young patients who have recovered after endovascular treatment, but they involved traumatically caused iatrogenic AD [30][31][32][33][34][35]. In another reported case, of a 10-year-old child with AD after balloon angioplasty of a recoarctation, distal percutaneous membrane fenestration was performed [36].…”

“…16 Others have gone so far as to say that ''although the natural history of residual pseudoaneurysms seems to follow those of nontraumatic atherosclerotic aneurysms, these lesions should not, especially in young patients, be considered completely benign, and the authors favor early intervention as soon as medically stable.'' 17 The Stanford philosophy is that these aortic injuries, especially pseudoaneurysms, are different than nontraumatic atherosclerotic aneurysms because in the majority of trauma patients, the underlying aortic pathology does not exist. Limited stentgraft device sizes, configurations, conformability, and lack of long-term device durability data have limited our enthusiasm for early endovascular intervention.…”
