Coral reef aorta (CRA) has been described as a rare disease characterized by the presence of dense calcifications of the aorta. In this study, we report on two patients with CRA caused by intermittent claudication (IC) who underwent endovascular VIABAHN VBX balloon-expandable stent-graft (VVBX) placement. Both patients underwent successful endovascular VVBX placement via transfemoral artery approach, and hemostasis was achieved via vascular closure device. Their symptoms were observed to disappear completely after treatment, and they were discharged without serious adverse events. No symptoms were noted at 1.5-year and 1-year follow-up.
珊瑚礁样主动脉(CRA)被描述为一种罕见疾病,其特征是主动脉存在致密钙化。在本研究中,我们报告了两名因间歇性跛行(IC)导致CRA的患者,他们接受了血管腔内VIABAHN VBX球囊扩张式覆膜支架移植物(VVBX)植入术。两名患者均通过经股动脉途径成功进行了血管腔内VVBX植入,并且通过血管闭合装置实现了止血。观察到他们的症状在治疗后完全消失,并且他们在没有严重不良事件的情况下出院。在1.5年和1年的随访中未发现症状。
