A Case of Endovascular Aortic Repair for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm with a Saccular Aneurysm in the Severely Angulated Proximal Landing Zone

抄録

We report a case of endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) for the abdominal aortic aneurysm complicated by a saccular aneurysm due to a penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer in the severely angulated proximal landing zone. To secure the zone, coil embolization of the saccular aneurysm was performed before stent grafting to treat the abdominal aortic aneurysm. To precisely follow the severely angled proximal neck, we used the Excluder stent-graft system inserted by the body floss technique method instead of the stiff wire method to avoid accordion folding the proximal landing zone. These techniques may expand the indications of EVAR.
