Bailout Endovascular Stent Grafting for an Ascending Aortic Pseudoaneurysm Using an Infrarenal Aortic Extension Cuff
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report successful thoracic endovascular repair of a pseudoaneurysm rupture in the ascending aorta using infrarenal endovascular devices after an aortic valve replacement. Complete exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm was achieved with no endoleak or postoperative complications. Despite limitations of the current technology, this endovascular technique was a relatively less invasive, feasible lifesaving surgical option for the repair of a pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta with a diameter ≤32 mm.

Complications after endovascular repair of Stanford type A (ascending) aortic dissection.
Endovascular treatment has emerged as a less traumatic alternative treatment for several diseases of the thoracic aorta. However, the complications of the endovascular management of ascending aortic dissections are still high. We present a case of two iatrogenic complications after endovascular repair (EVAR) of type A (ascending) aortic dissection. Retrograde aortic dissection at the proximal p...
متن کاملPosttraumatic infrarenal abdominal aortic pseudoaneurysm treated with bifurcated endovascular graft stent
Posttraumatic infrarenal aortic pseudoaneurysms are rare and potentially lethal lesions. We report the case of a 32-year-old man presenting with infrarenal aortic pseudoaneurysm eight months after being stabbed in the back and right flank. His pseudoaneurysm was close to the iliac bifurcation, so we decided to deploy a bifurcated endovascular graft stent, the TriVascular Ovation endovascular st...
متن کاملPatient-specific aortic endografting simulation: From diagnosis to prediction
Traditional surgical repair of ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm is complex, technically challenging, and associated with significant mortality. Although new minimally invasive procedures are rapidly arising thanks to the innovations in catheter-based technologies, the endovascular repair of the ascending aorta is still limited because of the related anatomical challenges. In this context, the in...
متن کاملAcquired Infrarenal Abdominal Aortic Coarctation: Treatment with Percutaneous Self Expandable Stent
Abdominal aortic coarctation is an extremely rare vascular pathology. Its etiology can be congenital or acquired. Here we present a case of acquired infrarenal abdominal coarctation in a 66-year-old woman who complained of low back and legs pain. She had no signs of resting lower limb ischemia, with diminished distal pulses and normal blood pressure in upper and lower extremities. Magnetic reso...
متن کاملEndovascular aortic aneurysm repair: association between anatomical fixation and outcomes using the Powerlink® device
Endovascular, catheter-based alternatives to open surgery for repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm have emerged over the last two decades using stent graft devices largely designed to mimic surgical grafts. These devices have similar characteristics, including relatively short main bodies, one long integrated limb, separate modular limb component(s) for assembly in situ, and requirement for fixa...
