  • Title: Management of inflammatory aneurysm of the infrarenal aorta using retroperitoneal exposure, open aneurysmorrhaphy and descending aorta-to-femoral artery bypass.
    Author: Robicsek F, Cook JW.
    Journal: J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino); 2000 Jun; 41(3):457-8. PubMed ID: 10952340.
    Abstract:
    The authors present a technique consisting of retroperitoneal exposure, but not dissection of the inflammatory aneurysm, anastomosis of a bypass graft through a short thoracotomy to the lowermost thoracic aorta, carrying it down retroperitoneally to both femoral arteries and under brief occlusion of the descending thoracic aorta, opening of the aneurysm and intra-aneurysmal occlusion of the inflow and outflow to the aneurysm. An illustrative case is presented.
