We present the case of a 77-year-old man with a saccular descending thoracic aortic aneurysm who underwent successful antegrade thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) via the left axillary artery. The patient had a history of axillo-bifemoral bypass grafting due to aortoiliac occlusive disease (Leriche syndrome), which precluded normal retrograde TEVAR. Upon successful procedure completion, no endoleak was noted on postoperative computed tomography. The patient was discharged from the hospital without any complications. The left axillary artery is useful as an alternative access site in cases wherein conventional retrograde TEVAR is not feasible.
我们报告一例77岁男性患者,患有降主动脉囊状动脉瘤,通过左腋动脉成功进行了顺行性胸主动脉腔内修复术(TEVAR)。该患者因主髂动脉闭塞性疾病(勒里什综合征)曾行腋-双股旁路移植术,这使得常规逆行性TEVAR无法进行。手术成功完成后,术后计算机断层扫描未发现内漏。患者出院时无任何并发症。在传统逆行性TEVAR不可行的情况下,左腋动脉可作为替代入路部位。
