Abstract

Aortic arch aneurysm repair continues to pose a formidable technical challenge in a patient population with significant co-morbidity. We present a successful endovascular repair of an 8.4 cm aortic arch aneurysm, in a 74 year old man, who's previous median sternotomy showed signs of delayed healing, precluding open repair. Applied endovascular techniques obviated the need for aortic clamping, cardiac bypass, or hypothermic circulatory arrest, via an approach that was potentially infected.

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.

Aneurysm

Aneurysms are outward distensions or bulges that occurs in a weakened wall of blood vessels. Discover the latest research on aneurysms here.
