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...

There is a growing body of literature expanding the indication of endovascular aneurysm repair, from prophylactic treatment of aneurysms to other indications such as ruptured and complicated ruptured abdominal aneurysms. Concomitant aortocaval fistula is rare, and reports of open and endovascular repair exist. We report a unique hybrid approach to a case of a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm ...
متن کاملAortocaval Fistula Resulting From Rupture of Abdominal Aortic Dissecting Aneurysm Treated by Delayed Endovascular Repair
Aortocaval fistula (ACF) after rupture of an abdominal aortic dissecting aneurysm is a rare emergency situation, which has a high mortality. However, the diagnosis is usually delayed, which increases the difficulties of treatment. We describe a case that successfully delayed use of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for ACF resulting from rupture of abdominal aortic dissecting aneurysm.We desc...
