Thoracic aortic aneurysm: a late complication of coarctation repair
A 67-year-old female patient had a patch repair of an aortic coarctation in 1972 and a mechanical aortic valve replacement in 2002 for a bicuspid valve. It was noted at the time of the repair that the aorta was ectatic and regular follow-up was suggested. She was followed up with yearly echocardiograms. It was noted that the diameter of descending aorta had increased to from 4.5 cm in 2013 to 5...
متن کاملGraft dilation after redo surgery for aneurysm formation following patch angioplasty for aortic coarctation.
OBJECTIVES Aneurysm formation after patch angioplasty for aortic coarctation is a frequent and potentially lethal complication, necessitating surgical reintervention. Although several mechanisms have been postulated, flow disturbance in a concomitant hypoplastic transverse aortic arch most likely contributes to the aneurysm formation. The outcome of the grafts after redo surgery, however, is un...
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...
متن کاملHybrid Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair for Intercostal Patch Aneurysm after Thoracoabdominal Aortic Replacement.
We report a case of hybrid thoracic endovascular aortic repair for intercostal patch aneurysm after thoracoabdominal aortic replacement. Eighteen years ago, a 63-year-old woman with Marfan syndrome had undergone thoracoabdominal aortic replacement with reimplantation of the intercostal artery in an island fashion. Follow-up computed tomography (CT) revealed a remaining intercostal patch aneurys...
متن کاملAortic valve and aortic arch pathology after coarctation repair.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the incidence of clinical problems related to a bicuspid valve (aortic stenosis and regurgitation) and the incidence of ascending aorta and aortic arch pathology in combination with coarctation repair. PATIENTS 124 adult patients after surgical correction of aortic coarctation were studied. The incidence of aortic valve, ascending aorta, and aortic arch pathology was ...
