| Popis: | Endovascular surgery as a whole, and specifically in the context of aortic aneurysms, is a very interesting methodology the potential of which is increasingly being recognized. Follow up information on patients who underwent these procedures will be critical to validate the different techniques which have been developed and to identify the most appropriate situations for this type of surgical procedures. The authors present a case of aortic aneurysm rupture who had undergone Parodi's endoprosthesis placement two years before. CT angiographic evaluation showed a wide endoleak due to distal stent detachment, a complete dislodging of the endoprosthesis itself and retroperitoneal haematoma. Prosthesis replacement through a laparotomic approach was carried out and the patient was discharged 10 days postoperatively, surgically cured. |
