The appearance of dysphagia after placement of endoprosthesis is an infrequent but potentially very dangerous event. In fact, in the course of the follow-up, the increase in the diameter of the aneurysm sac was observed with consequent compression on the surrounding anatomical structures. In particular, compression of the esophagus induces a serious dysphagia that compromises the quality of life of these patients.

Abstract
The appearance of dysphagia after placement of endoprosthesis is an infrequent but potentially very dangerous event. In fact, in the course of the follow-up, the increase in the diameter of the aneurysm sac was observed with consequent compression on the surrounding anatomical structures. In particular, compression of the esophagus induces a serious dysphagia that compromises the quality of life of these patients.File in questo prodotto:
