Acute type A aortic syndromes are catastrophic events whose management relies primarily on conventional surgery. For several years, various endovascular attempts have been described; however, long-term data are inexistent. We describe a case of stenting of the ascending aorta for a type A intramural haematoma with survival and freedom from reintervention at >8 years postoperatively.
