It may be difficult to access a route to deliver a stent-graft for abdominal aortic aneurysm in high-risk patients with bilateral iliofemoral occlusive disease. These two patients underwent both endovascular aortic aneurysm repair by a modified iliac access conduit technique and sequential ipsilateral iliofemoral artery bypass using the conduit, which provided excellent results. The iliac acces...

Introduction: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) was introduced in the early 1990?s, and long-term follow-up studies are warranted current guidelines.

For aged patients, the treatment of type A aortic dissection (TAAD) with the primary entry tear at the inner curve of the ascending aorta is a great challenge. Conventional surgical repair with cardiopulmonary bypass and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest is associated with high risk of mortality.[1] Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) with associated techniques to reconstruct all supr...

Paraplegia secondary to spinal cord ischaemia is a rare but devastating complication of abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. We report a case of paraplegia following elective endovascular repair of an infrarenal aortic aneurysm. A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drain was immediately inserted and resulted in full neurological recovery. This case highlights the fact that endovascular techniques are prone...

In Behçet's disease (BD) patients, endovascular repair is a reasonable alternative treatment for aortic aneurysms to avoid postoperative anastomotic pseudoaneurysms. However, there are some complications that may occur after endovascular repair. We herein report the case of a 40-year-old man with active BD developed recurrent aortic pseudoaneurysms at the proximal and distal margins of the sten...

Late complications following endovascular aneurysm repair indicate the need for long-term surveillance. Clinical trials involving endoluminal stent grafts have typically used computed tomography angiography as the main imaging modality for surveillance. However, computed tomography angiography exposes the patient to higher levels of ionizing radiation, nephrotoxic agents, and increased cost com...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study is to establish the current practice of aneurysm management, to assess the introduction of fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair (FEVAR) and to establish the criteria for its use and its role in the UK. METHODS All UK centres performing FEVAR and centres with an established interest in infra-renal endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) were invited to respon...

Renal artery aneurysms involving segmental branches pose a technical challenge in repair. Both endovascular and open repair techniques have been described. This case illustrates the clinical presentation of patient with symptomatic renal aneurysm thromboembolic infarction managed laparoscopic nephrectomy, ex-vivo resection, reconstruction, autotransplantation.

Endovascular aneurysm repair is a new and minimally invasive repair for patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). This method has potential advantages that are incomparable with other repair methods. However, the enlargement of aneurysm in the absence of endoleak, which is known as endotension, may occur as one of post-operative compliances of this method. Typically, endotension is mainly ...
