Abstract
Purpose: This technical note presents a case of a patient with a failed Nellix device (Endologix, Irvine, Calif) who was not deemed fit for open conversion. Our planned approach for repair involved an endovascular procedure utilizing a custom-made branched device.
Technique: An endovascular repair was performed via a custom-made four outer branched device in conjunction with a custom-made bifurcated graft featuring inverted limbs (Cook Inc., Bloomington, Ind). All branches were connected to the target vessel with Gore Viabahn VBX balloon-expandable covered stents (Gore & Associates Inc.).
Conclusion: Endovascular conversion with branched endovascular repair in a patient not deemed fit for open surgery was successfully performed, thereby reducing the risk of a high morbid and mortal procedure.Clinical ImpactNovel useful treatment solution of failed EVAR with Nellix device.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Endovascular Therapy (formerly the Journal of Endovascular Surgery) was established in 1994 as a forum for all physicians, scientists, and allied healthcare professionals who are engaged or interested in peripheral endovascular techniques and technology. An official publication of the International Society of Endovascular Specialists (ISEVS), the Journal of Endovascular Therapy publishes peer-reviewed articles of interest to clinicians and researchers in the field of peripheral endovascular interventions.
