A–D CT images before STABILISE technique. Legend: A 3D image of the CT scan 9 days after the proximal aortic repair. True lumen of the descending thoracic aorta was narrowed due to compression by the false lumen (blue arrow). B Axial image at the level of the left SCA ostium. Residual dissection in the left SCA along with antegrade blood flow into the false lumen of the aortic arch was observed (green arrow). C Coronal image of the thoracoabdominal aorta. Retrograde blood flow into the false lumen of the thoracoabdominal aorta to descending aorta was observed (yellow arrow). D Axial image at the level of the EIA. The true lumen of the left EIA is narrowed due to compression by the false lumen (red arrow)
