Abstract
A typical complication after conventional aortic prosthetic reconstruction is paraanastomotic aneurysm formation. Endovascular exclusion of paraanastomotic aneurysms has been shown to be a viable alternative to open surgical repair and to greatly reduce morbidity and mortality rates. We present a case report of asymptomatic proximal anastomotic pseudoaneurysm, measuring 4.5 cm in diameter, that was successfully treated by endovascular repair with a custom-made inverted limb infrarenal bifurcated graft.
