| Abstrakt: | Endograft limb trimming can be an easy customization to perform in some emergent setups and when alternative adequate covered stents are lacking. A man aged 74 years presented with aortoenteric fistula and hemodynamic instability years after an aortobifemoral bypass, and a 56-year-old woman was admitted with acute ischemia due to an aortic ulcer-like lesion. In both cases, tabletop deployment and removal of two stents from an Endurant iliac limb (Medtronic, Fridley, Minn), followed by resheathing and deployment, allowed successful repair as a bridging therapy for open surgery. Both patients are alive and without walking impairment 8 and 6 months later, respectively. (© 2016 The Author(s).) |
