A woman in her 70s with hypertension, breast cancer and diverticulosis underwent laparoscopic anterior resection for a tubule-villous adenoma, converted to open Hartmann's with aorto-bi-iliac bypass due to a vascular injury. Intraoperative complications included haem-o-lok penetration of the calcified aorta, necessitating vascular team intervention. Postoperative issues included bilateral popliteal artery emboli requiring embolectomy and fasciotomy, and a parastomal abscess.

an emerging pathogen, was first described in 2016, and has been implicated in abdominal, breast and spinal abscesses in a limited number of cases. Being a fastidious organism, it is primarily identified with molecular methods. With the incorporation of broad-range PCR testing in clinical diagnostics, has been increasingly reported in the literature.

Background: To report a novel staged hybrid technique to treat complex juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (JAAA) associated with at least one iliac artery aneurysm (IA) with no adequate distal fixation zone.

Methods: The novel technique herein described has two main "staged" steps. The first step consists in creating an adequate distal fixation zone by endovascular means; after hypogastric embolization an iliac stent-graft has placed from 5 mm above the aortic bifurcation to the external iliac artery.
