Detailed Description
Endovascular therapy to treat thoracic disease seems to provide a plausible benefit compared to surgery in terms of operative mortality and severe morbidity. The French National Health Authority (HAS) requires a 5-year follow-up as part of the renewal of reimbursement for these endoprostheses in order to collect long-term follow-up data under real-life conditions of use.

Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Patient where a GORE® TAG® or Conformable GORE® TAG® Thoracic Endoprosthesis is implanted (successfully or not) for the treatment of disease of the descending thoracic aorta.
