AI Article Synopsis

  • Extravasation of prosthetic grafts is uncommon, but anatomical issues after graft replacement can complicate endovascular treatments.
  • An 86-year-old patient experienced graft extravasation in the abdominal aorta 24 years post-implantation.
  • Successfully, his condition was treated using innovative endovascular techniques, including upside-down and kissing stent grafts via the opposite leg.

Article Abstract

Extravasation of prosthetic grafts is rare. Various anatomical problems after graft replacement might make standard endovascular treatment difficult. Use of a commercially available main body requires an adequate distance of the flow divider. An 86-year-old man developed extravasation of a graft that had been implanted in the infrarenal abdominal aorta 24 years previously. Endovascular repair with upside-down and kissing stent graft techniques using the contralateral leg was successfully performed.
