An aortic aneurysm is a condition with focal dilation of 50% or more over the normal aortic diameter. The most frequent form of aortic aneurysms is infrarenal. Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair is a valid treatment for treating patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm. Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are electively repaired to prevent rupture. We present a case of an elderly man with an impending rupture of intraluminal infrarenal AAA with bilateral common iliac arteries aneurysms. Overall, the patient had completed the procedure and made a good postoperative recovery with fully coverage of Indonesian national health insurance.
