  • Title: Complete Endovascular Treatment of Saccular Aneurysm of the Aortic Arch by Coiling and ch-EVAR.
    Author: Martens S, Maene L, Beelen R.
    Journal: Ann Vasc Surg; 2015 Oct; 29(7):1451.e21-4. PubMed ID: 26142879.
    Abstract:
    Saccular aneurysm of the aortic arch is a condition with a high associated mortality. Open surgery is often complicated with poor outcome and high postoperative morbidity and mortality. In this case report, we describe an alternative stepwise endovascular repair: coiling of the aneurysm followed by covering of the ostium of the saccular aneurysm by chimney endovascular aortic repair. In our opinion, this technique could be an alternative for a fully customized branched or fenestrated endoprosthesis to treat these kind of aneurysms.
