Abdominal aortic aneurysm is extremely rare in infant and is generally due to infection, umbilical artery catheterization, vasculitis, connective tissue diseases and tuberous sclerosis. At the absence of these evident causes, it is a congenital primary aortic aneurysm which is exceedingly rare and only a few cases have of which have been reported. Here we report two cases of aortic wall reconstruction done by a Gore tex patch. The immediate result is excellent with a reestablishment of the femoral pulse and an excellent Doppler control. The problem which we may face in the future is probably the aortic out come with this Gore tex patch a continaons follow up of these patients is necessary.

One-year results of an eHealth intervention on anxiety in patients undergoing abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery: randomized clinical trial.
BJS Open
December 2024
Department of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, Stockholm Aortic Research Group, STAR, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background: The longitudinal effects of educational interventions in people with abdominal aortic aneurysm are largely unexplored. This prospective study investigated whether the anxiety-lowering effect of an eHealth intervention observed at the 1-month follow-up is maintained 1 year after abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery.
Methods: Those scheduled for surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm were recruited in a single-centre randomized clinical trial.
Hybrid Arch Aneurysm Repair With Ascending Aortic Wrap and TEVAR.

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.
Endoanchors for the distal fixation of iliac limb in endovascular aneurysm repair.

This report details the case of an 84-year-old male with an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm and a dilated right common iliac artery eligible for endovascular treatment. A bifurcated stent graft (Medtronic Endurant IIs) was used to treat the aneurysm. To address the concerns of instability of the right iliac limb, four endoanchors (Heli-FX EndoAnchor, Medtronic) were placed at the distal landing zone to provide additional fixation.

TAAs involving the proximal arch require adequate coverage with thoracic endovascular aortic repair, which is timely and challenging in emergent ruptures. In situ laser fenestration is a novel method of arch revascularization.

Treatment with an inhibitor of glucose use via glucose transporters (GLUT) has been shown to attenuate experimental abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) development in mice. Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) signaling seems to be essential for angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced AAA in mice. Accordingly, we have tested a hypothesis that VSMC silencing of the major GLUT, GLUT1, prevents AAA development and rupture in mice treated with Ang II plus β-aminopropionitrile.
