Open surgical repair for a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm with a horseshoe kidney.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Horseshoe kidney is a congenital anomaly characterized by medial fusion of the bilateral kidneys. Treatment for an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) with a horseshoe kidney is a technical challenge because of the complex anatomy. We report a successful open surgical repair for a ruptured AAA with a horseshoe kidney. An aortic grafting was performed with division of the renal isthmus through a transperitoneal approach. In the case of a ruptured AAA, quick open surgery is the most reliable treatment. If a horseshoe kidney coexists, transperitoneal approach with division of the renal isthmus provides good surgical field for an aortic grafting.

Abstract Background: Renal insufficiency is a potential complication after infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm repair and is a significant risk factor for postoperative mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of this risk factor, before and during operation. Methods: In this prospective study, between 2003 and 2006, 45 patients underwent repair of an infrarena...

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) with associated horseshoe kidney (HSK) poses a technical challenge when performing conventional open surgical repair because of possible complications including renal infarction, neuralgia, and collecting system disruption. Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) is considered the first-line treatment for this pathology, allowing for aneurysm repair without isthmus bis...

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 کاملSuccessful Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair Following Surgical Mobilization of an Accessory Renal Artery in the Setting of Horseshoe Kidney
There are several reported cases of successful endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) in patients with concomitant horseshoe kidney, in which accessory renal arteries were sacrificed. We describe a case of horseshoe kidney and AAA in which a surgical vascular conduit to accessory renal arteries created favorable anatomy for endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) while preserving re...

Horseshoe kidney is a rare congenital anomaly showing various degrees of fusion and accessory blood supply. Coexistence of horseshoe kidney and aortic aneurysm therefore presents a technical challenge to vascular surgeons. We report an 83-year-old woman with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with horseshoe kidney. Preoperative computed tomography (CT) showed discontinuity of the a...
