Ruptured aneurysm: therapy of abdominal compartment syndrome post EVAR
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Endovascular treatment of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (r-EVAR) has the potential to offer improved outcomes. A frequent cause of post-operative mortality following ruptured aortic aneurysm repair is multiorgan failure (MOF) as a consequence of abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS). We reviewed our experience to identify predisposing factors for ACS (Fig. 1) and a way for its treatment.

OBJECTIVE Endovascular repair (EVAR) of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) has become first-line therapy at our institution and is performed under a standardized protocol. We compare perioperative mortality, midterm survival, and morbidity after EVAR and open surgical repair (OSR). METHODS Records were retrospectively reviewed from May 2000 to September 2010 for repair of infrarenal rA...

We report a case of a patient with a residual hematoma compressing the inferior vena cava after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), which led to a pulmonary embolism (PE). A 65-year-old man underwent emergent EVAR for a ruptured aortic aneurysm in the right retroperitoneal region. He developed sudden chest pain at midnight of the fifth day after EVAR, and computed tomography demonstrated a mas...

A man in his 80s underwent urgent endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) for a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (RAAA). Surgery was completed without apparent complications, and the patient was returned to the Cardiac Care Unit. Two hours later, he again developed shock, and contrast-enhanced Computed Tomography showed extravasation from a type II endoleak (T2EL) involving the IMA. Transcatheter a...
متن کاملAbdominal compartment syndrome after endovascular repair for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm leads to acute intestinal necrosis
INTRODUCTION Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) after endovascular repair (EVAR) of rupture abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) is a rare emergency situation, which has a high mortality. However, the progression of ACS is rapid and the diagnosis is usually been delayed, which increase the difficulties in treatment and affect the prognosis. We describe a case of a sever complication (acute intest...
