Zusammenfassung:Objective: Spinal cord ischemia (SCI) after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) remains a debilitating complication, occurring in 10% of patients. Studies have shown that extended aortic coverage is a risk factor for SCI. This study evaluates whether extended aortic length coverage is a significant risk factor for SCI. Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed 277 consecutive patients who underwent TEVAR successfully between 2006 and 2021 at a single institution. The patients were classified into 2 groups: ≥205 mm and
