Endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with crossed fused renal ectopia
Chimney/snorkel endovascular aneurysm repair (Ch-EVAR) enables the minimally invasive treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm in anatomically challenging and high-risk surgical cases. Here, we present the case of a 77-year-old man with an abdominal aortic

Ultrasound by emergency physicians to detect abdominal aortic aneurysms: a UK case series [PDF]
Early identification of abdominal aortic aneurysms in some patients can be difficult and the diagnosis is missed in up to 30% of patients. Ultrasound cannot be used to identify a leak, but the presence of an aneurysm in an unstable patient is ...

Blue Toe Syndrome as a Rare Complication of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular disease that often remains asymptomatic until rupture or the occurrence of complications. The mortality rate of rupture exceeds 80%. Most AAAs are discovered incidentally; rare presentations may occur due to peripheral embolization from intra‐aneurysmal thrombi.

Yersinia enterocolitica in Italy. A case of septicemia and abdominal aortic aneurysm infection [PDF]
We report a case of Yersinia enterocolitica septicemia in a 63-year-old patient admitted to the Vascular Surgery Department of Umberto I Hospital (Rome, Italy) for an abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Abstract Between 1981 and 1986, 282 cases of abdominal aortic aneurysm were diagnosed in Waltham Forest. Rupture had occurred in 183, 15 underwent urgent operation for intact aneurysm, and 84 had elective surgery. The incidence of rupture increased from 13 to 21 per 100000 population during the 6-year period.

The Cattell-Braasch maneuver might be a good option for a huge abdominal aortic aneurysm
Endovascular repair is often difficult in the case of a huge abdominal aortic aneurysm for anatomic reasons. Here, we describe open repair of a huge infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Evolution of the wall shear stresses during the progressive enlargement of symmetric abdominal aortic aneurysms. [PDF]
The changes in the evolution of the spatial and temporal distribution of the wall shear stresses (WSS) and gradients of wall shear stresses (GWSS) at different stages of the enlargement of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are important in understanding

An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is defined as a localized dilation of the artery that is 1.5 times the diameter of the normal segment. The most common location for an aortic aneurysm is the infrarenal segment where a diameter that exceeds 3 cm in diameter is considered aneurysmal.

Objectives We discuss the case of a 9.0 cm chronic contained ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm in a stable 60 year-old male presenting in the ambulatory setting, which was identified intraoperatively after being missed on pre-surgical imaging.
