Endovascular Treatment of a Distal C1 Dissecting Aneurysm in a Patient with Double Aortic Arch
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 65‐year‐old man with a history of smoking for 30 years was hospitalized in our stroke unit with a complaint of recurrent transient right‐side numbness. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/magnetic resonance angiography did not demonstrate any abnormities. However, he experienced another two same episodes before discharge. Further, head and neck computed tomography angiography (CTA) showed a complete DAA and a dissecting aneurysm in the distal C1 segment of the left internal carotid artery (ICA) [Figure 1a‐1d]. Then, a rechecked MRI showed a new infarction lesion located in the left thalamus [Figure 1e].

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...

Endovascular repair of inflammatory aortic aneurysms has been reported as an alternative to open surgical treatment. In selective cases, adjunctive bypass surgery may be required to provide an adequate landing zone. We report a case of endovascular repair of an inflammatory aortic aneurysm in a patient with Behçet's disease using a carotid-carotid bypass graft to provide an adequate landing zon...

OBJECTIVE We evaluated early and long-term results of atherosclerotic aneurysm repair with custom-made endografts. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-one consecutive patients underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair with custom-made endografts. Fenestrated grafts were used in 37 patients (45.7%) to maintain blood flow of the neck and a landing zone for as long as possible for distal arch or pr...
