Endovascular repair of an aorto-iliac aneurysm succeeded by kidney transplantation

چکیده
Treatment of patients with aorto-iliac aneurysm associated with chronic renal failure (CRF) under hemodialysis is a challenge, due to increased morbimortality1,2. Several authors reviewed open aneurysm repair in association with kidney transplantation (RT) and proposed a staged approach with aorto-iliac disease being treated first3-5. Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has been replacing open repair in patients with a high surgical risk, with the advantages of less morbimortality and shorter operative time and hospital stay6. There are several reports of successfully EVAR performed in RT recipients7-9, but there are just two reported cases of EVAR followed by successful RT10,11. These were performed on aortic aneurysms. There are no reported cases of aorto-iliac aneurysm. This paper reported a case of aorto-iliac aneurysm in a patient with CRF under hemodialysis successfully corrected by EVAR succeeded by RT.

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...
متن کاملImages for surgeons. Concomitant open surgical repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm and endovascular repair of a thoracic aortic aneurysm.
Infrarenal abdominal aortic and descending thoracic aneurysms are the most frequently coexisting aortic aneurysms and pose problems deciding priority of treatment, timing of interventions, and minimizing the risk of paraplegia. An 81-year-old man presented with a 5.8-cm descending thoracic and a 5.0-mm infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (A, note two renal arteries on the right). The thoracic ...

A 74-year-old patient presented with recurrent aneurysms in the infrarenal abdominal aorta and right common iliac artery 6 years after endovascular aortic repair using endografts in the same location. The patient underwent an aorto-bi-iliac replacement with removal of the stent graft. Two holes measuring 2 mm each were found in the removed graft, and they appeared to have been caused by wear fr...

A 78-year-old man presented at Eulji University Hospital due to an abdominal aortic aneurysm with maximum diameter of 52 mm, which had been increased from 45 mm over 6 months. He underwent embolization of the left internal iliac artery with vascular plug, prior to endovascular abdominal aortic repair with a bifurcated stent graft system. Unfortunately, the inserted vascular plug was maldeployed...

Arterioenteric fistula (AEF) on a kidney graft site is a rare cause of massive lower gastrointestinal bleeding (LGIB). Emergency angiography with concomitant endovascular repair is an efficient and safe approach in controlling the acute bleeding and stabilizing patients with life-threatening bleeding from AEF. We report a 42-year-old male who underwent allograft renal transplantation in the rig...
