Rupture of Hypogastric Artery Aneurysm Following Failed Endovascular Repair: A Case Report
نویسنده
چکیده
Hypogastric artery aneurysms are usually associated with aortic and common iliac aneurysm and rarely occur in isolation [1-6]. The majority of hypogastric artery aneurysms are incidentally detected on imaging of the abdomen or pelvis for unrelated complaints. Those that present in extremis are associated with acute rupture and carry a high mortality rate [1,2]. Herein we present a case of an incidentally found isolated right hypogastric artery aneurysm treated initially with endovascular repair. The aneurysm subsequently ruptured and was treated successfully with open repair.

Successful endovascular coiling of a ruptured internal iliac artery aneurysm: a case report
Ruptured internal iliac artery aneurysms (IIAA) are extremely rare, and the repair can be challenging. This case reports described an 83-year-old patient who presented at our Emergency Department with acute abdominal pain based on a ruptured IIAA. He refused open repair and only wanted to be treated as minimally invasive as possible. Therefore endovascular embolization of the IIAA was performed...

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...

INTRODUCTION Inferior pancreatico-duodenal artery (IPDA) aneurysms are very rare and commonly associated with coeliac axis stenosis or occlusion due to atherosclerosis, thrombosis or median arcuate ligament syndrome. We present a case of a surgical repair of an IPDA aneurysm with the use of a supra-coeliac aorto-hepatic bypass with a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) graft, following a failed init...
متن کاملEndovascular aneurysm repair in emergent ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm with a ‘real’ hostile neck and severely tortuous iliac artery of an elderly patient
BACKGROUND Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has been a revolutionary development in the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). Meanwhile, unfavorable anatomy of the aneurysm has always been a challenge to vascular surgeons, and the application of EVAR in emergent and elderly patients are still in dispute. CASE PRESENTATION A 79-year-old woman presented as an emergency of abdominal...
