“…With optimal preoperative aortography and functional work-up (to assess the significance of renal artery stenosis, for instance), these pitfalls can be avoided. Progress in treatment includes intraluminal dilatation of the stenosed renal artery (4 cases in our series), reimplantation of an accessory renal vessel (one case in our series), and division of the parenchymal bridge of a horseshoe kidney [38].…”

Based on a review of the literature and 241 cases of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) operated at the Mannheim Surgical Clinic, the progress and pitfalls in the management of this lesion are discussed. Progress in diagnosis is based on noninvasive imaging procedures, e.g., ultrasound, which lead to the detection of more aneurysms before they rupture. Ultrasound also plays a role in the observation of small asymptomatic aneurysms in high‐risk patients, helping some to avoid operation as well as rupture. Progress in the treatment of AAA means simplification: rapid clamping of the aorta in case of rupture, minimal dissection, and aneurysmal repair with straight‐tube interposition by the inlay technique. The pitfalls of “trash foot,” colon, or renal ischemia as well as graft infection can be mostly circumvented by observance of technical detail. In this series, the mortality following repair of asymptomatic AAA was 3.7%; for symptomatic aneurysms, it was 8%; and for ruptured aneurysms, it amounted to 55%.

The co-existence of horseshoe kidney (HSK) and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is rare and demands a special diagnostic workup and a meticulous surgical procedure. Ten patients with HSK associated with AAA are reported. All underwent aortic replacement with successful preservation of multiple renal arteries. One patient died at the 7th postoperative day from myocardial infarction. HSK does not represent a contraindication for aortic repair. Angiography for identification of aberrant renal arteries and classification into three types for surgical management is mandatory. In type I and II we recommend a standard midline transperitoneal approach. Only in type III does a thoraco-abdominal approach seem favourable. The aortic reconstruction should be performed with tube grafts, if possible. Aberrant renal arteries are reattached directly to the prosthesis. Dissection of renal isthmus should be avoided. Temporary cold renal perfusion is indicated to extend the ischemic tolerance time. As repair of a ruptured AAA in patients with HSK may be quite difficult and time consuming, we recommend more liberal indications for aneurysm surgery in patients with HSK.
