Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) can present with symptoms because of aneurysmal compression of adjacent organ systems. This condition has always been treated by open surgical repair. Here, we report a case of an AAA complicated by inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombosis and deep venous thrombosis (DVT) due to IVC compression by aneurysm successfully treated by endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).
A 50-year-old man was presented with 3-day right lower extremity edema. He was diagnosed with acute DVT and IVC thrombosis initially. Anticoagulation therapy and catheter-directed thrombolysis under the protection of IVC filter were performed. Subsequent imaging revealed a 9.5-cm infrarenal AAA compressing the IVC. The patient was transferred to our hospital and underwent EVAR successfully.
EVAR is a viable treatment option for patients with an AAA complicated by IVC thrombosis and DVT due to IVC compression by aneurysm.
腹主动脉瘤（AAA）可因瘤体压迫相邻器官系统而出现症状。这种情况一直通过开放手术修复进行治疗。在此，我们报告一例腹主动脉瘤合并下腔静脉（IVC）血栓形成及因动脉瘤压迫下腔静脉导致的深静脉血栓形成（DVT），经血管腔内动脉瘤修复术（EVAR）成功治疗的病例。
一名50岁男性出现右下肢水肿3天。最初诊断为急性DVT和IVC血栓形成。在IVC滤器保护下进行了抗凝治疗和导管定向溶栓。随后的影像学检查显示一个9.5厘米的肾下腹主动脉瘤压迫下腔静脉。患者被转至我院并成功接受了EVAR治疗。
对于腹主动脉瘤合并因动脉瘤压迫下腔静脉导致IVC血栓形成和DVT的患者，EVAR是一种可行的治疗选择。
