Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - NEXUS Aortic Stent Graft System

Experimental: Chronic Dissection -

Experimental: Aneurysm -

Experimental: Penetrating Aortic Ulcer and/or Intramural Hematoma -


Treatment: Devices: NEXUS Aortic Stent Graft System
Arch Stent Graft, whose cranial narrow end is intended to be deployed into the Brachiocephalic artery and whose distal end is intended to be deployed into the Descending Thoracic Aorta.

Ascending Stent Graft intended to be deployed in the Ascending Aorta.

OPTIONAL: Descending Extension can be used in case the aortic lesion elongates further distally and out of the covered length offered by the Arch Stent Graft. Multiple Descending Extensions can be used if needed to cover the entire length of the lesion.

Key exclusion criteria

6. Received a previous stent or stent graft in the treated area (including planned landing area)
7. Required surgical or endovascular treatment of an infra-renal aneurysm at time of implantation
8. Planned major surgical or interventional procedure at time of screening, to be performed after the NEXUS™ implantation.
9. Any major surgical or interventional procedure 6 weeks before the NEXUS™ implantation, exclusive of planned procedures that are needed for the safe and effective placement of the stent graft (e.g. supra-aortic bypass).
10. Subject has had a myocardial infarction (MI) or cerebral vascular accident (CVA) within 90 days prior to the planned implantation
11. Subjects with severe aortic valvular insufficiency as determined by echocardiography

17. Unsuitable vascular anatomy
18. Subject who have a previously implanted surgical wrap of the ascending aorta
19. Any medical condition that, according to the investigator's decision, might expose the subject to increased risk by the investigational device or procedure.
20. An aneurysm that is mycotic, inflammatory or suspected to be infected.
21. Subject with hostile groins/axilla (scarring, obesity, or previous failed puncture) unless conduit are used.
22. Subjects with severe atherosclerosis, severe calcification or extensive intraluminal thrombus of the aorta or in the brachiocephalic trunk
23. Subject is suffering from unstable angina or NYHA classification III and IV.
