Endovascular repair of a saccular infrarenal aortic aneurysm in a liver transplant patient.
Overview
abstract
Saccular infrarenal aortic aneurysms are rare lesions that usually require prompt surgical repair. In clinical situations where morbidity and mortality associated with open aortic surgery appear to be prohibitively high, an endovascular approach may serve as a life-saving alternative. We report successful endovascular repair of a symptomatic saccular infrarenal aortic aneurysm in a complicated liver transplant patient.
