Technique for safe removal of an aortic endograft with suprarenal fixation
Journal of Vascular Surgery(2006)
摘要
Complete removal of an aortic endograft with suprarenal fixation is difficult. We report the use of a simple device to extract a Zenith endograft. This device is made by cutting off the tip of the cylinder of a 20-mL syringe and rounding off the edges. The main body of the graft is resheathed by advancing the cylinder cranially while keeping the graft in a stable position. This way, the graft collapses and the hooks are withdrawn without tearing the wall of the aorta. The supraceliac clamping time in our patient was less than 2 minutes. This technique offers a safe and fast solution to the potentially hazardous removal of an aortic endograft with suprarenal fixation.
