Chief Complaint : Known incidental abdominal aortic aneurysm
Duration : Not known
Present illness : A 74 year old male with a history of chronic hypertension was incidentally found to have an asymptomatic infrarenal AAA, andpresented to our institution.
CT-Aorta3
.Severe angulated infra-renal AAA
.Lt.RA level diameter (30mm) .Bifurcation level diameter (22mm)4
.Maximal diameter (71mm)
Rt.IIA level (Rt.IIA aneurysmal change)
Rt.CIA aneruysm diameter (35mm)
Rt.IIA occlusion-vascular plug5

Access :.Access :
.8 F Judkins right (JR) 5 guiding catheter
.8-Fr Balkin sheath by Lt.CFA :(C k I t d Bl i t IN)(Cook Incorporated, Bloomington, IN)
.Diameter & length of the stent graft :
.Over-sizing of 30-50% greater than that of the Rt.IIA
.Preprocedural occlusions of Rt.IIA to prevent endoleak of aneurysm
.Diameters & lengths of the vascular plug :

.Diameters & lengths of the vascular plug :
.Maximum diameter of the Rt.IIA was measured at 7 mm

Stent Graft for EVAR11
.Crossing the limb (Ballerina technique):Severe infra renal aortic neck.Severe infra-renal aortic neck
.Splayed aortic bifurcation with large valueof theta for the angle of the Lt.CIAg
Identification of the proximal landing zone12

.5 Fr pigtail catheter was placed at just above both RAs via the Lt.CFA
.Endurant (Medtronic Cardiovascular, Santa Rosa, Calif) via the Rt.CFA:.Main bifurcated stent graft : 36-16 & 14 mm tapered diameter & 166 mm length

.Main bifurcated stent graft : 36 16 & 14 mm tapered diameter & 166 mm length
.0.035-inch stiff G/W (Lunderquist extra stiff wire, Cook Medical, Bloomington, IN)
.Proximal landmark for stent graft placement :.Origin of the Lt.RA (the lowest RA)
Partial deployment of main body SG14
(Intentional cross leg-ballerina configuration of the stent graft)
.The short-contralateral limb orifice of the SG is positioned to face the ipsilateral side (Rt.side)
Snare technique (Rt.BA & Lt.CFA)15

5-Fr multipurpose support-catheter is moved forward over the wire via the Lt CFA.5 Fr multipurpose support catheter is moved forward over the wire via the Lt.CFA.0.035-inch stiff G/W (Lunderquist extra stiff wire, Cook Medical, Bloomington, IN)
Insertion of the contralateral limb-SG17
.18 Fr sheath (UltimumTM EV, St. Jude, Minnetonka, Minnesota) in the Lt.CFA
.Endurant (Medtronic Cardiovascular, Santa Rosa, Calif) :.16-20 mm reversed tapered (Bell type) diameter & 124 mm length
Deployment of the contra-lateral limb & main body18
p y y
.Accurate distal landing is essential to avoid the occlusion of the Lt.IIA, which is left open
Deployment of the ipsilateral limb-SG19
.18 Fr sheath (UltimumTM EV, St. Jude, Minnetonka, Minnesota) in the Lt.CFA
.Endurant (Medtronic Cardiovascular, Santa Rosa, Calif) :.16-13 tapered diameter & 93 mm length to extend coverage to the Rt.CIA-EIA
