An Aortoenteric Fistula Arising after Endovascular Management of a Mycotic Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Complicated with a Psoas Abscess
Mycotic aortic aneurysms account for 1–3% of all aortic aneurysms. The management of this disease is controversial. Since open surgical repair is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, endovascular aneurysm repair is an alternative treatment method with promising early and midterm outcomes, although its long-term durability is unknown.Secondary aortoenteric fistulas may occur iatro...
متن کاملEndovascular treatment of mycotic aortic aneurysms: a European multicenter study.
BACKGROUND Mycotic aortic aneurysm (MAA) is a rare and life-threatening disease. The aim of this European multicenter collaboration was to study the durability of endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) of MAA, by assessing late infection-related complications and long-term survival. METHODS AND RESULTS All EVAR treated MAAs, between 1999 and 2013 at 16 European centers, were retrospectively review...
متن کاملEndovascular repair of thoracic aortic aneurysms.
A thoracic aortic aneurysm is a potentially life-threatening condition that involves a structural weakness of the aortic wall, which can lead to aneurysm, rupture, or dissection. Optimal treatment strategies for lesions of the thoracic aorta are still controversial. Open surgery is complex and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Endovascular stenting has emerged as an altern...
متن کاملEndovascular Repair of Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are catastrophic events with dismal outcomes. Even in the modern era, the overall mortality rate reaches 90%. Most ruptured aneurysms worldwide are repaired by conventional open surgery with a high operative mortality despite major medical advancements in diagnostic imaging and intensive care delivery. Over the past two decades, the in-hospital mortali...
متن کاملEndovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms.
In September 1999, the Food and Drug Administration approved two devices for the endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms. The endografts are placed from within the arteries using fluoroscopic guidance. The minimally invasive technique is performed using bilateral femoral artery cut-downs and has significant advantages over open surgical repair, including a reduction in morbidity, hosp...
