The AFX2 endovascular repair system is a unibody, bifurcated stent graft that can be used in an abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with anatomical challenges, especially if it is combined with different aortic cuffs. The use of an AFX2 main body combined with a thoracic stent graft as a proximal aortic cuff was selected to treat a 77-year-old male patient with abdominal aortic aneurysm. The AFX2 endograft combined with a proximal thoracic aortic cuff plays a safe and effective role in treating complex infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm that may otherwise be technically more challenging with the open technique and inaccessible with the traditional endovascular technique.
AFX2血管内修复系统是一种一体式分叉型覆膜支架,可用于解剖结构复杂的腹主动脉瘤,尤其是与不同主动脉袖套联合使用时。选择使用AFX2主体与胸段覆膜支架作为近端主动脉袖套,治疗一名77岁腹主动脉瘤男性患者。AFX2腔内移植物与近端胸主动脉袖套联合使用,在治疗复杂的肾下腹主动脉瘤方面发挥着安全有效的作用,否则开放技术在技术上可能更具挑战性,而传统血管内技术则难以实现。
