Key result
Emergency endovascular repair of a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm in anatomically difficult conditions achieved an acceptable clinical and angiographic result.
Why the study?
Acute rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm carries a high mortality rate, and endovascular repair is safer than open surgery but challenging in complex anatomically difficult conditions.
Case Report (n=1)
Emergency endovascular repair can be successfully performed for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms even in anatomically difficult conditions.
Technical success in complex ruptured AAA case supports feasibility; leaves open need for comparative data before practice change.
This report presents a clinical case of emergency endovascular treatment of acute rupture of the abdominal aortic aneurysm in complex anatomically difficult conditions. Although this pathology is rare, it has a high mortality rate. Moreover, according to different authors endovascular repair is safer as compared with open surgery. We demonstrate the decision-making algorithm, show the technical nuances during the intervention which allowed us to achieve an acceptable clinical and angiographic result. Our experience will be interesting and useful for specialists who treat patients with vascular diseases.
