Abdominal aortic aneurysm remains mostly asymptomatic. It is usually detected incidentally with imaging studies. Here we present a 55 years old hypertensive, non smoker, non diabetic, male patient who was diagnosed as a case of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm. He was treated by endovascular means using endograft without laparatomy. Endografts were deployed through bilateral femoral artery cut down technique under general anesthesia. Completion angiogram following this endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) technique revealed good technical success with no endoleak. This hybrid procedure was performed in a cathlab having surgical instruments in hand. Three years after the procedure, patient is doing well.
