    Abstract:
    Ruptured thoracoabdominal aneurysms (rTAAAs) are rare and carry a significant rate of morbidity and mortality. Aortocaval fistula secondary to rTAAA is even more infrequent. We describe an urgent and staged endovascular treatment of a ruptured extent III thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm with an aortocaval fistula by performing vena cava stenting to treat aortocaval fistula as a damage control maneuver prior to transfer and subsequent TAAA repair with a physician-modified endograft at a quaternary level hospital.
