Treatment of abdominal aorta aneurysms
نویسنده
چکیده
Background The best treatment of abdominal aorta aneurysms of the segments below the emergency of the renal arteries are still under discussion. In literature there are several studies that compare the retroperitoneal (R.P.) approach with the transperitoneal (T.P.) one or that suggest their possible variations. The R.P. approach offers the possibility of treating patients with hostyle abdomen (former laparotomic surgery, obesity) or in a state of chronic respiratory insufficiency; it allows for a better exposure of the over and infra-renal abdominal aorta segments and most of all it is characterised by a better post surgery period associated with a lower number of postoperatory complications with a faster restart of the intestinal functions and with shorter hospitalization.

Treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm by excision and replacement by homograft.
RECENT experiences with the treatment of saccular aneurysms of the aorta have shown that excision of an aneurysm in any portion of the aorta, with aortic suture, is feasible and that operative risk is not great.' Aneurysms of the distal abdominal aorta are in a more favorable position for surgical attack; however, such lesions are almost always caused by arteriosclerosis. The generalized distri...

Para-anastomotic aneurysms are either true aneurysms or pseudoaneurysms. The latter tend to be asymptomatic until rupture. Para-anastomotic aneurysms should be approached surgically, despite the high morbidity and mortality associated with their treatment. This report describes the case of a 68-year-old woman who presented with a paraanastomotic pseudoaneurysm secondary to infrarenal aortic ane...
متن کاملA case of double inflammatory aneurysms in the thoracic and abdominal aorta repaired simultaneously.
A 54-year-old male who had been experiencing a high fever for a month was admitted to a local hospital for examination. Computed tomography revealed saccular aneurysms in the descending thoracic aorta and infrarenal abdominal aorta. The walls of the aneurysms were thickened and enhanced by intravenous contrast which suggested the inflammatory change. He was transferred to this hospital and unde...
متن کاملPharmacologically induced thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms in mice.
Aortic aneurysms are common among the elderly population. A large majority of aortic aneurysms are located at two distinct aneurysm-prone regions, the abdominal aorta and thoracic aorta involving the ascending aorta. In this study, we combined two factors that are associated with human aortic aneurysms, hypertension and degeneration of elastic lamina, to induce an aortic aneurysm in mice. Roles...
