“…Given the success of the transcaval approach, an occlusion device specifically designed for this purpose by Transmural Systems is already in early feasibility testing. 8,9 As described earlier, the first reported case of transcaval access was by Mansueto et al, 4 which described coil embolization of 3 type 2 endoleak cases. Since then, there has been significant interest in the evaluation of transcaval embolization as a strategy for the treatment of endoleaks in patients with complicated anatomic features.…”

Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has reduced the morbidity and mortality associated with the treatment of thoracic aortic pathologies. However, TEVAR’s use is often predicated on sufficiently large femoral access for the delivery of the endograft device. Transcaval access, or the delivery of endovascular device via the vena cava before crossing into the aorta, has been used successfully for the deployment of transcatheter aortic valves. Our institution previously reported on a case of TEVAR using transcaval access. We now report on the long-term follow-up outcome of this case. At 6 years post-surgery, computed tomography angiography (CTA) indicates stable aortic repair without any concerning findings associated with the site of transcaval access into the aorta. The patient is clinically without signs of lower extremity vascular or cardiopulmonary compromise. Overall, transcaval access for TEVAR is a promising alternative to traditional femoral artery access in highly-select patients with the appropriate anatomical and pathological indications.
