Endovascular treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm: a case report
INTRODUCTION Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms usually present in elderly patients with serious renal, pulmonary, cerebral, or cardiac comorbidities that pose a great challenge to the attending surgeon.

متن کاملThoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair: current endovascular perspectives
Thoracoabdominal aneurysms account for roughly 3% of identified aneurysms annually in the United States. Advancements in endovascular techniques and devices have broadened their application to these complex surgical problems. This paper will focus on the current state of endovascular thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair, including specific considerations in patient selection, operative planning, an...
متن کاملTreatment of a rapidly expanding thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm after endovascular repair of descending thoracic aortic aneurysm in an old patient

We herein describe a hybrid procedure for treatment of rapidly expanding thoracoabdominal aneurysm following endovascular treatment of a descending thoracic aortic aneurysm in an older patient. CASE PRESENTATION A 82-year-old man at...
متن کاملSuccessful endovascular coiling of a ruptured internal iliac artery aneurysm: a case report
Ruptured internal iliac artery aneurysms (IIAA) are extremely rare, and the repair can be challenging. This case reports described an 83-year-old patient who presented at our Emergency Department with acute abdominal pain based on a ruptured IIAA. He refused open repair and only wanted to be treated as minimally invasive as possible. Therefore endovascular embolization of the IIAA was performed...
متن کاملBranched stent-graft used for the complete endovascular treatment of a type-II thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm.
Endovascular repair (EVR) of infrarenal abdominal aortic or descending thoracic aortic aneurysms is widely described in recent literature. Unfavourable anatomical conditions such as visceral branch disorders limit the application of EVR. However, new technologies provide for endovascular treatment in experienced centres. 3 We report the case of a 79-year-old male, former smoker with a history o...
