“…The risk of SCI following TEVAR varies and depends primarily on the extent of coverage of the segmental arteries and the vigor of the paraspinal collateral network. Several risk factors predispose TEVAR patients to SCI [ 30 , 31 ]. These include severe calcification or extensive coverage of the descending thoracic aorta (≥ 20 cm long), coverage of the left subclavian artery without revascularization, coverage of the celiac artery, or occlusion of the hypogastric plexus.…”

“…As early as 1986, Crawford et al reported that SCIR may result in paraplegia in up to 40% of the patients in thoracoabdominal surgery. [26] However, current methods to treat SCIR injuries are not yet effective, [27] including cerebrospinal fluid drainage, [28] reattachment of segmental arteries, [29] and administering pharmaceutical drugs (steroids, oxygen-derived free radical scavengers, and vasodilators). [30,31] The mechanism underlying SCIR-induced damage may be intricate.…”
