Hybrid-Fenestrated Aortic Aneurysm Repair: A Novel Technique for Treating Patients With Para-Anastomotic Juxtarenal Aneurysms

This article describes a novel technique that combines off-label endovascular methods with an open surgical debranching procedure to facilitate repair of a para-anastomotic juxtarenal aortic aneurysm. We present a case of recurrent aortic aneurysmal disease 10 years after infrarenal tube graft repair. The aneurysm was treated in two stages; first by retrograde aortobirenal bypass with a bifurcated graft. Subsequently, fenestrated endografting was performed with a custom-altered TX-2 thoracic stent graft (COOK, Bloomington, IN), with fenestrations for both the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries. As compared with a purely open approach, this technique offers an alternative for managing juxtarenal aneurysms with less physiologic insult.
