Abstract
- A 70-year old male with dilated cardiomyopathy was admitted to our hospital because of a renal stone, and a supra-renal abdominal aortic aneurysm was detected during work-up. We performed a hybrid surgery using an endovascular stent because of his co-morbidities. The operation consisted of removal of the renal stone, de-branching of the visceral artery and both renal arteries from the abdominal aorta, reperfusion of the de-branched arteries with retrograde bypass surgery using two Y-graft from the left external iliac artery, and deployment of stent graft in the abdominal aorta. Therefore, we report a case of hybrid surgery for supra-renal abdominal aortic aneurysm.
