Purpose: To report the endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) in 2 patients with pelvic renal transplants.Methods and Results: Two men with multiple comorbidities and pelvic transplant kidneys underwent endovascular AAA repair using an aortomonoiliac system with femorofemoral bypass grafting. The arterial end-to-side anastomosis in both patients was to the external iliac artery. Tapered aortomonoiliac grafts were fashioned from Gianturco Z-stents covered with Dacron graft material and implanted with the distal attachment site in the iliac system ipsilateral to the transplant kidney arterial anastomosis. The body of the stent-graft was reinforcement with a Wallstent in each case before the contralateral common iliac artery was occluded and the cross-femoral bypass constructed. Both patients recovered uneventfully from the procedure and are free of endoleak or other complications related to their aneurysm repair at 7 and 34 months.Conclusions: The presence of a pelvic renal transplant in a patient undergoing endovascular AAA repair increases the complexity of procedural planning and endograft implantation, but a good outcome can be achieved. |
