The detachment of components of endovascular devices is a rare but potentially harmful complication. This report describes a clinical case of nosecone detachment from an iliac branch device delivery system during an aortoiliac aneurysm exclusion in a 73-year-old male patient. After correct deployment, the iliac branch device nosecone detached during the removal of the delivery system. The guidewire was snared from the contralateral side, and two long sheaths were advanced to trap and protect the fractured piece, ensuring nice alignment and enabling its safe removal. This case highlights key strategies for managing serious complications encountered during endovascular aortic repair.
血管内装置部件的分离是一种罕见但可能有害的并发症。本报告描述了一名73岁男性患者在腹主动脉瘤排除手术过程中,髂支装置输送系统的鼻锥发生分离的临床病例。在正确植入后,输送系统移除过程中髂支装置鼻锥分离。从对侧圈套住导丝,并推进两个长鞘管以捕获和保护断裂部件,确保良好对齐并使其能够安全移除。该病例突出了处理血管内主动脉修复过程中遇到的严重并发症的关键策略。
