Methods: A retrospective single-center study analyzing 18 consecutive patients (mean age 63 years, range 44\u201376; 16 men) with thoracic false lumen aneurysm in chronic aortic dissection. All patients underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair with false lumen occlusion using the Candy-Plug technique. Primary endpoints consisted of technical success (successful deployment) and clinical success (no false lumen backflow). Secondary endpoints included 30-day mortality and morbidity as well as aortic remodeling during follow-up. Results: Technical success was 100%. Additional intraprocedural false lumen embolization at the Candy-Plug level was needed in 1 patient due to persisting false lumen backflow on the final angiogram (clinical success 94%). There were no intraprocedural complications. In the perioperative period, there were 3 minor complications: transient mild spinal cord ischemia, cervical hematoma after carotid-subclavian bypass, and a common femoral artery pseudoaneurysm. No deaths or reinterventions occurred. Complete distal false lumen occlusion was present on postoperative computed tomography in 15 patients, while 3 had minor contrast enhancement in the distal false lumen. Over a mean 9-month follow-up (range 0\u201326), 1 patient died due to rupture. Follow-up &gt;6 months was available in 10 patients (mean 14.7 months, range 7\u201326): 7 patients showed aortic remodeling, while aneurysm size was stable in 3 patients. Conclusion: The Candy-Plug technique is a feasible endovascular method to achieve false lumen occlusion and aortic remodeling in chronic aortic dissection. It is associated with low morbidity and mortality due to its minimal invasiveness.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1526602817709252","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,11]],"date-time":"2017-05-11T08:49:50Z","timestamp":1494492590000},"page":"549-555","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":108,"title":["The Candy-Plug Technique: Technical Aspects and Early Results of a New Endovascular Method for False Lumen Occlusion in Chronic Aortic Dissection"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Fiona","family":"Rohlffs","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"German Aortic Center Hamburg, Department of Vascular Medicine, University Heart Center, University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nikolaos","family":"Tsilimparis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"German Aortic Center Hamburg, Department of Vascular Medicine, University Heart Center, University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Beatrice","family":"Fiorucci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"German Aortic Center Hamburg, Department of Vascular Medicine, University Heart Center, University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany"},{"name":"Unit of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Hospital S.
