Percutaneous endovascular repair of aneurysm after previous coarctation surgery.
BACKGROUND Formation of aortic aneurysm late after surgical repair of coarctation carries a significant risk of rupture and lethal outcome, and repeat surgery is associated with a 14% in-hospital mortality rate and morbidity from paraplegia, injury to the central nervous system, or from bleeding. The potential of nonsurgical endovascular repair by the use of stent-grafts in lieu of repeat surge...
متن کاملLong-term results of endovascular aortic repair for thoracic pseudoaneurysms after previous surgical coarctation repair.
OBJECTIVES Late aneurysm formation has been reported after every type of surgical coarctation repair in up to 10%, with rupture of such aneurysms being responsible for approximately 7% of all deaths. Secondary surgical repair carries a significant mortality (up to 15%) and morbidity rate (recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis ∼20%, phrenic nerve injury ∼5%). According to the positive experience w...
متن کاملUnexplained rupture after endovascular aneurysm repair
We present a case of a 70-year-old man who was admitted with rupture of an abdominal aneurysm 4 years after endovascular aneurysm repair. He was compliant with yearly follow-up computed tomography angiography. One month earlier, his computed tomography angiogram showed perfect exclusion of the aneurysm and no endoleak. We explanted the stent graft and confirmed effective sealing, and the graft ...
متن کاملLate aneurysm rupture after endovascular abdominal aneurysm repair.
OBJECTIVES The goal of endovascular repair is to protect the patient from aneurysm rupture. Careful surveillance should be performed postoperatively in order to select patients with aneurysm growth and, therefore, the highest rupture risk. The aim of the study was to present our experience with aneurysm rupture in long-term follow-up after endovascular abdominal aneurysm repair. METHODS Betwe...
متن کاملRuptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm after Endovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repair
In treating uncomplicated abdominal aortic aenurysm, endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) has been employed as a good alternative to open repair with low perioperative morbidity and mortality. However, the aneurysm can enlarge or rupture even after EVAR as a result of device failure, endoleak, or graft migration. We experienced two cases of aneurismal rupture after EVAR, which were succes...
