Popis: BackgroundThe disruption of the stent component of the graft is an unusual complication of the endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR).Case presentationA 71-year-old man underwent EVAR followed by initial significant sac shrinkage. At 24 months, ultrasound and computed tomography showed sac growth associated with suprarenal stent graft separation from main body, without evidence of endoleak. A thoracic endograft was placed with complete relining of the previous graft.Conclusions.The report demonstrates un uncommon cause of endograft failure with suprarenal stent separation from a Zenith Cook main body and highlights the need for continuous follow-up.
