A valiant stent graft system was implanted in a patient for the emergent endovascular treatment of the transection in the thoracic aorta.It was reported that the patient presented for follow up.A previous ct revealed a proximal type i endoleak.The physician elected to perform a carotid to subclavian bypass to resolve the proximal type i endoleak.It was later noted that the proximal type i endoleak had resolved without intervention prior to the bypass conversion; as the physician did not review the most recent films for this patient.Per the physician, there was a miscommunication regarding the correct films reviewed.No additional clinical sequelae were reported and the patient is fine.
