A Case of Deep Femoral Artery Aneurysm Treated by Using VIABAHN

Abstract

The case was a 77-year-old man. Deep femoral artery aneurysm (DFAA) and popliteal artery aneurysm (PAA) were pointed out after EVAR for AAA. The maximum diameter of DFAA was 36 mm and the length was 85 mm. It was possible to secure a sufficient proximal and distal landing zone for measurement, and treatment was performed with VIABAHN. Two years later, reduction in the aneurysm size and good graft patency were obtained. In recent years, many stent graft treatments for peripheral aneurysms have been reported overseas, but few have been placed in DFAA. We report the case with some literature review.
