To prevent and manage frequent complications after endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA).
The data of 71 cases of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) treated by endovascular repair were analysed retrospectively. The reasons, managements, results and prognosis of frequent complications were investigated.
Seventy-one cases of infrarenal AAA were treated by endovascular repair with 100% success rate. There was no surgical conversion to open aneurysm repair. There were 8 cases of primary endoleak, 1 case of nervous complication and acute thrombosis. An average follow-up period was 26 +/- 5 months. Three persistent endoleaks and 4 secondary endoleaks were found during the follow-up period. The endoleak rate was 9.8% (7/71) within 1 month postoperatively and mortality rate was 1.3% (1/71). Total mortality rate was 4.2% (3/71). Two patients died from acute myocardial infarction and one from acute heart failure.
Endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm is technically feasible and can effectively exclude aortic aneurysms from the circulation. Endoleak is a chief complication after endovascular repair of infrarenal AAA.Additional procedures and follow up are very important. Endoleak with enlarged aneurysm should be treated actively.
预防和处理肾下腹主动脉瘤(AAA)腔内修复术后常见并发症。
回顾性分析71例接受腔内修复治疗的肾下腹主动脉瘤(AAA)患者的数据。调查常见并发症的原因、处理方法、结果及预后。
71例肾下腹主动脉瘤患者接受腔内修复,成功率达100%。无手术转为开放动脉瘤修复的情况。发生原发性内漏8例,神经并发症及急性血栓形成各1例。平均随访时间为26±5个月。随访期间发现3例持续性内漏和4例继发性内漏。术后1个月内漏发生率为9.8%(7/71),死亡率为1.3%(1/71)。总死亡率为4.2%(3/71)。2例患者死于急性心肌梗死,1例死于急性心力衰竭。
腹主动脉瘤腔内治疗技术上可行,能有效将动脉瘤排除在血液循环之外。内漏是肾下腹主动脉瘤腔内修复术后的主要并发症。额外的手术及随访非常重要。动脉瘤增大的内漏应积极治疗。
