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 impact: Novel useful treatment solution of failed EVAR with Nellix device.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
