Explant of an infected four-vessel fenestrated and bilateral iliac branch stent graft in a patient of Jehovah's Witness faith [PDF]
Infection of fenestrated-branched stent graft is an uncommon but potentially catastrophic complication. The technical challenge of total stent graft explant and reconstruction of the renal-mesenteric arteries is associated with high mortality and ...
