Chronic type B dissecting aortoiliac aneurysm repair complicated by congenital pelvic kidney

Journal of Vascular Surgery

Abstract

Although the association between abdominal aortic aneurysm and pelvic kidney is rare, previous reports have described various methods of repair with successful preservation of pelvic kidney function. We describe a unique case complicated by aortic dissection. Successful intra-operative perfusion of the kidney was maintained via a temporary axillorenal shunt.
