    Author: Nakajima M, Tsuchiya K, Akashi O, Morimoto H, Kato K.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2007 Jun; 83(6):2216-9. PubMed ID: 17532434.
    Abstract:
    We report an extremely rare case of saccular thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm associated with high abdominal aortic occlusion including the superior mesenteric and bilateral renal arteries in a patient requiring hemodialysis. Successful repair of the aneurysm and concomitant revascularization of the lower extremities was achieved using femoro-femoral bypass for perfusion of the lower body along with the visceral and intercostal arteries.
