Collateral miracle—reformation of iliac and femoral arteries by collaterals from bilateral subclavian arteries following contained rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm in a hypertensive female

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2019
Rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm is readily diagnosed when the triad of abdominal or back pain, shock and a pulsatile abdominal mass are present.

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2004
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.

Diabetes and the Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2010
The aim of this review is to delineate the association between abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) and diabetes mellitus. Mechanisms for the underlying association are then discussed.A systematic review of the English-language literature using PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane databases was undertaken up to September 2009.

The Cattell-Braasch maneuver might be a good option for a huge abdominal aortic aneurysm

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
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.

Endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with crossed fused renal ectopia

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2020
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

Chronic contained posterior rupture of large abdominal aortic aneurysm missed on pre-operative CT imaging

Annals of Vascular Surgery - Brief Reports and Innovations, 2022
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.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm

Journal of British Surgery, 1988
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.

Combined AFX2 with thoracic stent graft: A different endovascular approach of an abdominal aorta aneurysm

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2023
The AFX2 endovascular repair system is a unibody, bifurcated stent graft that can be used in an abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with anatomical challenges, especially if it is combined with different aortic cuffs.

Abdominal aortic aneurysms in women [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2013
Abdominal aortic aneurysms have an incidence that is approximately four to six times higher in men than in women. However, the incidence in women also rises with older age, although starting later in life than in men. There are also sex differences in the risk of rupture and in outcomes after endovascular and open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair ...

Endovascular repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm in a kidney transplant recipient

Radiology Case Reports, 2020
Surgical treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm in patients with a transplanted kidney is true a challenge. Conventional open repair of the aneurysm requires aortic cross-clamping.
