Article Abstract
We report the case of a high risk patient with an abdominal infrarenal aortic aneurysm (AAA) who was treated by endovascular technique and the subsequent management of a type II endoleak by the laparoscopic approach. In this case, a 74-year-old woman with a 6-cm infrarenal AAA underwent endovascular repair using a bifurcated stent-graft device. Surveillance CT scan showed a persistent type II endoleak at 1 week and 3 months after the operation. Angiography confirmed retrograde flow from the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA). Attempted transarterial embolization of the IMA via the superior mesenteric artery was not successful. Laparoscopic transperitoneal IMA clipping was performed. Subsequent aortic duplex scan and CT scan confirmed complete elimination of the type II endoleak. We conclude that a combination of endovascular and laparoscopic procedures can be used to manage AAA successfully.

We present a case of an 80-year-old female who presented with chest pain, vomiting and night sweats a few weeks post thoracic endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (TEVAR). A computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated a type 1B endoleak for which she underwent a repeat TEVAR. Postoperatively, she developed fever, dysphagia, haematemesis and melaena.

Objective: We present our experience with endovascular Bentall procedure (Endo-Bentall) using a modular valve conduit (Endo-Bentall) in high-risk patients with aortic root pathologies.
Methods: The physician constructed Endo-Bentall device is composed of a self-expanding transcatheter aortic valve (TAVR), aortic endovascular stent graft (TEVAR), and two wire-reinforced fenestrations for coronary artery stenting. The TAVR valve is sutured into an appropriately sized TEVAR graft.

Objective: Over 30% of patients presenting with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) are considered high - risk or inoperable. This study aims to investigate the early and mid-term outcomes of complex endovascular aortic repair of aortic root, ascending aorta, and aortic arch among patients with ATAAD.
Methods: From January 2018 to January 2023, 29 patients who were considered high risk for open operation underwent endovascular aortic repair.

Objective: Half of re-interventions after fenestrated and branched endovascular aortic repair (FB-EVAR) are target vessel related. Regarding bridging stent choice, existing data are controversial. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the performance of Advanta V12/iCAST as bridging stent in FB-EVAR.

Introduction: Management of patients with large aortic arch aneurysms who are considered high risk for frozen elephant trunk technique have been challenging, especially when they have a dilated ascending aorta (AA) that precludes total endovascular branched repair (arch BEVAR). A viable option in our armamentarium is wrapping of the AA (AW), and zone 0 Ishimaru TEVAR.
Methods: Retrospective analysis of our aortic database from 2013 to 2024 to select high-risk patients with aortic arch aneurysm that had an AW and TEVAR.
