Treatment of Abdominal Aortic Endograft Infolding
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aortic endograft infolding is considered a rare endograft related complication and is mostly reported after deployment in the thoracic aorta. We report a case of early abdominal endograft infolding with luminal obliteration and acute bilateral limb ischemia after endovascular treatment of a common iliac aneurysm. Even though completion Computed Tomography (CT) angiography, three days prior, revealed no apparent mismatch of the stent graft to the aortic wall. This report aims to describe an overview of the different treatment modalities and focuses on the endovascular techniques for inducing re-expansion of the infolded graft and allowing for improved sealing of the endograft.

Delayed graft dislocation after thoracic aortic endovascular repair.
BACKGROUND Endograft dislocation in thoracic aorta has not been widely studied. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to analyze the incidence and predisposing factor in a single centre experience after 117 procedures. METHOD Between November 2000 and December 2011, all consecutive patients undergoing endovascular repair for descending thoracic or thoraco-abdominal aortic disease were ide...
متن کاملHybrid repair of rare type IIIb endoleaks from an abdominal endograft: repeatedly undetected endoleaks.
We report a rare case of massive type IIIb endoleaks from an abdominal endograft, which were difficult to diagnose and required hybrid repair (including open surgery). The patient had previously undergone three catheter interventions for type Ia and II endoleaks after abdominal endografting. However, the abdominal aortic aneurysm gradually enlarged and required hybrid treatment (including an op...
متن کاملStraight aortic endograft in abdominal aortic disease
BACKGROUND We describe our 8-year experience with the use of endovascular techniques (ET) for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) through a straight endograft. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data of all patients who were treated for AAA using ET in two centres from 1998 to 2012 and who received a single straight endograft (group A) or a double straight tube (group B). Outco...
متن کاملStudying the Flow Dynamics Within Endografts in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Endovascular Treatment (EVAR) is considered the treatment of choice for the majority of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) nowadays, since it demonstrates improved perioperative morbidity and aneurysm-related mortality, comparing to conventional open repair. However, despite the initial technical success and early discharge of the patient, this technique is amenable to early and late complication...
متن کاملEndovascular Treatment of Infrarenal Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm with Short and Angulated Neck in High-Risk Patient
Endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is an established alternative to open repair. However lifelong surveillance is still required to monitor endograft function and signal the need for secondary interventions (Hobo and Buth 2006). Aortic morphology, especially related to the proximal neck, often complicates the procedure or increases the risk for late device-related compli...
