摘　　要：The patient is 50-year-old man. He was admitted to our hospital with a strong back pain and diagnosed as an acute type B aortic dissection. On the second day of hospitalization, he developed symptoms of paraplegia, and we considered TEVAR, but we were concerned that TEVAR intervention in the acute phase might worsen the dissection, so we first placed a cerebrospinal drainage (CSFD) device, which resulted in improvement of his symptoms. Thereafter, although his lower limb mobility was fine, he underwent thoracic stent graft aortic repair (TEVAR) in the subacute phase due to worsening ULP. The patient had a good postoperative course and was discharged home unassisted. The initial placement of CSFD was effective in reducing the incidence of paraplegia as a complication of TEVAR and in bringing the timing of TEVAR intervention from the acute phase to the subacute phase.The patient is 50-year-old man.
