Abstract
We report a case of limb occlusion after endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm (EVAR) with Endurant® AAA endovascular graft. A 64-year-old man underwent EVAR for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) 54 mm in diameter demonstrated by computed tomography (CT). He was discharged 8 days after surgery without symptom. 20 days after the surgery, he got a cramp in his left leg suddenly, and he became aware of the intermittent claudication. However, he left the symptom. 28 days after the surgery, he consulted internal medicine and CT was performed because his left leg had a symptom of ischemia. The CT revealed limb occlusion of the left leg of endovascular graft. The occluded range was the left superficial femoral artery from the origin of the left leg. He was treated with right external iliac to left common femoral bypass (ePTFE graft 8 mm) after thrombectomy. The condition of his left leg improved after surgery.
