Thoracoabdominal 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 کاملReview and current strategy tor thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair
Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAS) are perrnanent localized dilations of the aorta that involve the celiac axis and extend proximally or distally from this point. Open surgical repair of TAAAS has traditionally involved greater operative risk than repairs of aneurysms in other aortic segments. However, experienced surgical centers now have much lower mortality and morbidity rates for TAA...
متن کاملVisceral Debranching Thoracic Endovascular Aneurysm Repair for Chronic Dissecting Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Type II chronic dissecting thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms are a surgically challenging disease. The conventional thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair technique using cardiopulmonary bypass is a high-risk procedure. However, a recently developed endovascular technique may be an alternative treatment for the disease, but faces the obstacle of lesional restriction. This new technique uses a ...
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 کاملEndovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
The early 1990s ushered in the era of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Diffusion of this technology, although widespread, has been met with enthusiasm by some and caution by others. Advocates of traditional open surgical techniques maintain that EVAR is costly and that long-term outcomes for patients are inferior. The objectives of the present review are to use a case scenario to highlight ...
