“…The 17 F sheath was then positioned inside the lumen of the portion of the Viabhan was released according to its instructions for use ( Figure 6) and the decision was taken not to use a proximal extension to avoid excessive oversizing at the juxtarenal aorta, since the aneurysm was completely excluded by the bifurcated model. 5 Once EVAR was complete, the excess length of the Viabahn  was sectioned and it was fitted to the right common femoral artery, to which it was sutured only at the anterior wall during primary arteriorrhaphy of the right femoral artery. However, there was extensive damage to the wall of the common femoral artery at the suture line, complicated by occlusion of the right superficial femoral artery, and embolectomy with a Fogarty  catheter was required.…”

Unfavorable iliac artery anatomy causing access limitations during endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair: application of the endoconduit technique

et al. 2014

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is already considered the first choice treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Several different strategies have been used to address limitations to arterial access caused by unfavorable iliac artery anatomy. The aim of this report is to illustrate the advantages and limitations of each option and present the results of using the internal endoconduit technique and the difficulties involved.Keywords: aortic aneurysm; endovascular procedures; surgical procedures, minimally invasive; iliac artery; vascular access devices. ResumoO tratamento endovascular para aneurisma de aorta abdominal (AAA) já está bastante difundido, sendo considerado como primeira escolha na maioria dos casos. Limitações no acesso pelas artérias ilíacas tortuosas, com estenoses, calibre pequeno ou doença oclusiva já foram contornadas com o uso de condutos, dissecção direta aortoilíaca, angioplastias, entre outros procedimentos. O objetivo deste desafio é mostrar as vantagens e limitações de cada alternativa, além de apresentar o resultado e as dificuldades com o endoconduíte.Palavras-chave: aneurisma aórtico; procedimentos endovasculares; procedimentos cirúrgicos minimamente invasivos; artéria ilíaca; dispositivos de acesso vascular.
