abstract
- The successful use of customized branched or fenestrated devices to treat elective thoracoabdominal aneurysm (TAAA) has already been described. However, the device customization is a lengthy process that necessitates a delay in treatment of more than a month. This case reports an emergency treatment of TAAA, in a 80-year-old patient, refused to open repair, admitted with abdominal pain using a new technique, modifying Gore C3 Excluder (WL Gore & Associates, Flagstaff, AZ) including branches to enable the emergency endovascular treatment of TAAA preserving visceral artery flow and excluding aneurysm.
