Endovascular Aneurysm Sealing (EVAS) in Combination with the Chimney Technique for the Treatment of Aortic Allograft Rupture

Rustum S, Meyer B, Hinrichs J, Aper T, Haverich A1 and Wilhelmi M

We report on a 62-year old male patient with complicated surgical history and actual covered ruptures of an aortic allograft. Considering the hostile abdomen we decided for an interventional/endovascular treatment. We implanted an aortic-(EVAS; Nellix®) as well as two renal stentgrafts in „chimney “technique. Following an uneventful perioperative course the patient was discharged on 14th postoperative day. This unusual case demonstrates that endovascular aneurysm sealing especially in combination with the chimney technique may be a feasible and reasonable alternative approach for the urgent/emergent treatment of aortic (prosthesis) associated complications where traditional surgical approaches are not applicable.
