  • Subject requiring an aortic conduit or direct aortic access
  • Subject has an aortic atheroma classified as grade IV or grade V.
  • Subject has had previous endovascular repair of the ascending and/or descending thoracic aorta <30 days of implantation of investigational device or previous repair was a non-Medtronic device
  • Treatment with the Valiant Mona LSA Thoracic Stent Graft system would require intentional coverage of the left common carotid artery with the stent graft fabric.
  • Subject has significant and/or circumferential aortic mural thrombus at either the proximal or distal attachment sites that would compromise fixation and seal of the device.
  • Subject is a pregnant female.
  • Subject has a known allergy or intolerance to the device components.
  • Subject is in acute renal failure or has renal insufficiency with a serum creatinine ≥ 2.0 mg/dL or is on dialysis.
  • Subject has a body habitus which prevents adequate visualization of the aorta.
  • Subject has coronary artery disease with unstable angina and who has not received treatment.
  • Subject has a connective tissue disease (e.g. Marfan's syndrome, medial degeneration).
  • Subject has active systemic infection and/or a mycotic aneurysm.
  • Subject is currently participating in an investigational drug or device clinical trial that would interfere with the observations of this study.
  • Subject has other medical, social, or psychological problems that, in the opinion of the investigator, will interfere with treatment and follow-up procedures.
  • Subject has a life expectancy of less than 1 year.
  • Subject requires treatment of an infrarenal aneurysm at the time of the implantation.
  • Subject has had previous surgical or endovascular treatment of an infra-renal aortic aneurysm <30 days of implantation of investigational device.
  • Subject has a history of bleeding diathesis, coagulopathy, or refuses blood transfusion.
  • Subject has had a cerebral vascular accident (CVA) within 3 months.
  • Subject has had a myocardial infarction (MI) within 3 months.
  • Subject has a known hypersensitivity or contraindication to anticoagulants or contrast media, which is not amenable to pre-treatment.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of the Feasibility study is to characterize the safety of the Valiant Mona LSA Thoracic Stent Graft System, including an assessment of the safety and effectiveness of the device acutely and at the 30 day visit in the identified subject population. This study will also evaluate the current instructions for use and may direct changes to the delivery and deployment steps. The purpose of the expansion to the Feasibility Study is to characterize the Valiant Mona LSA Thoracic Stent Graft System, in particular to assess the safety and effectiveness of the device acutely and at the 30 day visit, in subjects enrolled with chronic, Type B dissections.
Detailed Description
The purpose of the clinical investigation is to assess the feasibility of the Valiant Mona LSA Thoracic Stent Graft System to repair fusiform/saccular aneurysms, penetrating ulcers and chronic type B dissections of the DTA in patients who require coverage of the LSA, including an assessment of the safety and effectiveness of the device acutely and at the 30 day visit in the identified subject population. Procedural information will be collected in order to enhance the current instructions for use and delivery and deployment steps. The chronic Type B Dissection expansion subjects will be prospectively enrolled in support of a future premarket approval analysis for the Valiant Mona LSA device.
