Places an additional lined tube inside the aorta, the main artery running down through the chest, to extend a stent-graft repair that was carried out at an earlier, separate session. It is delivered through a blood vessel using catheters and imaging rather than through an open chest. Extending the repair lets it seal against healthy vessel wall.
