About this trial
The Castor™ and Cratos™ Branched Aortic Stent Graft Systems are medical devices designed for the minimally invasive endovascular treatment of thoracic aortic pathologies in the descending aorta. The goal of this multi-centre retrospective and prospective observational registry study is to capture the short-, medium- to long-term safety and performance data of how Castor™ and Cratos™ stent-grafts work in real-world settings (everyday medical practice). The aim is to study approximately 100 patients in European hospitals, with competitive enrollment.
