Thoracic Aorta Aneurysm Repair in a Patient with a Solitary Kidney: Hybrid Surgery as a Bailout Procedure
نویسندگان
چکیده
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is an emerging treatment option for thoracic aorta aneurysms (TAA). Endovascular access is a challenge. We present a novel TEVAR technique in a patient with single kidney and a 6.4 cm TAA. Attempting to place a sheath through iliac arteries was unsuccessful. The decision to proceed to hybrid TEVAR was made. The protection of the solitary kidney was achieved through axillo-femoral bypass, followed by an end-to-side anastomosis between the aorta and a bifurcated graft. Through the graft, a stent was introduced in the thoracic aorta. With the use of contrast material, the right position of the graft was confirmed.

Free esophageal perforation following a hybrid visceral debranching and distal endograft extension to repair a ruptured thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) is a rare complication. The authors report a 56-year-old male who underwent elective thoracic endovascular aortic repair of a thoracic aneurysm. Four and a half years later, he presented with a new aneurysm extending from the distal end ...

Traumatic false aneurysm of the thoracic aorta is not uncommon. But accordingly this case is unusual in its ten year delay between injury and presentation and treatment. A victim of the Iran-Iraq war is presented with a false aneurysm of the thoracic aorta ten years after a bullet injury to the chest and thoracic spine. Penetrating chest wounds, mechanisms of injury and diagnosis are also ...

متن کاملThe efficacy and short-term results of hybrid thoracic endovascular repair into the ascending aorta for aortic arch pathologies.
OBJECTIVES Conventional total aortic arch repair is a high-risk procedure, particularly for high-risk patients. Although endovascular treatment of aortic arch aneurysm is a recently induced procedure, only a few cases are indicated and outcomes are questionable. Here, we report on the early and short-term results of our surgical procedure, i.e. hybrid arch repair with supra-aortic debranching a...
متن کاملEight-year follow-up of a high-risk patient treated for Crawford Type II thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) with a multistage hybrid open-endovascular repair.
The case of a patient with type II TAAA (thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm), who underwent multistage hybrid procedure, is presented. This high-risk patient was excluded as ineligible for conventional open repair. At first, the bypass between both common carotid arteries was inserted. Then, the transperitoneal viscerorenal revascularization was performed to ensure blood perfusion. At the end, th...
