  • Title: A combined endovascular and open ''reverse hybrid'' technique for repair of complex juxtarenal inflammatory aortic aneurysms.
    Author: Rigberg D, Jimenez JC, Lawrence P, Gelabert H.
    Journal: Vasc Endovascular Surg; 2009; 43(5):494-6. PubMed ID: 19850595.
    Abstract:
    Inflammatory abdominal aortic aneurysms (IAAA) can present significant challenges to surgeons, especially in the juxtarenal location where they may not be amenable to endovascular repair. The dense, inflammatory component of these lesions can encase adjacent structures including the duodenum, ureters, and inferior vena cava putting them at risk for injury during open exposure. We report a novel ''reverse hybrid'' technique using a combined endovascular and open approach for repair of large, juxtarenal IAAA's.
