摘要:
This report describes endovascular stenting of an acute mycotic ascending aortic aneurysm. An eighty-three year old lady presented nine weeks after aortic valve surgery and subsequent thyroidectomy with sternal pain secondary to a mycotic ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm. The pseudoaneurysm was visible-through the unhealed sternum. Open repair was considered too high a mortality risk. Endovascular stenting was performed using two covered infrarenal proximal extension devices (GORE Excluder Aortic Extender, W. L. Gore Et Associates, Flagstaff, Arizona, USA) deployed from a right axillary approach utilising overdrive cardiac pacing. Post procedure imaging revealed shrinkage of the pseudoaneurysm sac.
