Abstract

|
Endovascular aneurysm repairs for a ruptured AAA (EVAR for r-AAA) have been reported with limited results although endovascular aneurysm repairs for elective AAA (EVAR for e-AAA) have shown good early and late results. In this case report, the authors described successful EVAR for r-AAA. A 93-year-old female underwent emergent EVAR for r-AAA. An aortic occlusion balloon was inserted before general anesthesia for hemodynamic stability. Zenith endograft was deployed under general anesthesia. Completion angiography showed no endoleak but there was coverage of the right renal artery. She was discharged 2 weeks after overcoming transient acute renal insufficiency. We concluded that EVAR for r-AAA can be an alternative option for the treatment of ruptured AAA.
