Multiple Parallel Grafts for Urgent Endovascular Repair of a Ruptured Mycotic Aortic Aneurysm
Funding None.
Abstract
A 73-year-old woman underwent urgent endovascular repair of a ruptured mycotic aortic aneurysm. A thoracic stent graft was employed as the main endograft, while the celiac trunk and superior mesenteric artery were revascularized by the chimney technique and the renal arteries through the periscope technique. Postoperative computed tomography revealed a Type A1 gutter, treated by detachable coils and peripheral occlusion devices. Six-month follow-up revealed patency of the stent grafts, without endoleak or stent graft infection signs.
