Physical Examination andHistory
A 75-year-old female came to the emergency room on March 2012 with severe pain in the right lower extremity as well as right lower quadrant of the abdomen. She was a resident of a nursing home and had recently been dis­charged from the hospital following acute exac­erbation of oxygen- dependent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Past medical history was positive for hypertension, congestive heart failure, and falls secondary to back and lower extremity pain as a result of
compression fracture of T12 vertebral body. Past surgical history included debrillator and pacemaker placement. In 2005, patient under­went endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with a Zenith graft at an outside hospital, and records from the vascular surgeon’s clinic revealed that she was followed up for 6 months with abdominal aortic ultrasound. There was no CTA imaging following her index operation. Emergency CTA scan of the abdomen and pel­vis showed ruptured right common iliac aneu­rysm (large) and a Type IB endoleak and retroperitoneal hematoma (Fig.70.1).

70 Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm duetoType IB Endoleak

Procedure

Patient was taken to the operating room as an emer­gency, and 7 F sheath was inserted in the right femoral artery. An angle stiff glidewire (035– 180cm long) was advanced into the stent graft, and aortogram was obtained which showed extravasa­tion of the contrast adjacent to the common iliac artery/stent graft junction. Using Kumpe catheter and glidewire, access was obtained into the right hypogastric artery, and both branches (anterior and posterior) were catheterized. Tornado coils (two
each) 6×3 and 8×4 were deployed in both ante­rior and posterior branches resulting in complete occlusion of the hypogastric artery and its branches. Angle stiff glidewire was replaced by Lunderquist wire, and an iliac extension limb 16 × 13 ×124 (Endurant) followed by 18× 13 × 82 (Endurant) was deployed as an extension into the proximal external iliac artery. Following balloon angioplasty, completion arteriogram was obtained which showed possible Type III endoleak; therefore another iliac extension limb (16 × 13 × 93) was deployed with resolution of endoleak (Fig.70.2).

Patient developed dilutional coagulopathy with mildly distended abdomen. Coagulopathy was cor­rected by fresh frozen plasma platelet transfusion. However, patient could not be weaned off the ven­tilator, and patient’s family decided hospice care as per her advanced directive. She died 3 weeks fol­lowing repair of ruptured right iliac aneurysm.

Discussion

Rupture of AAA in a patient with prior EVAR remains a lethal problem [1, 2]. Cho etal. reported that existing endograft provides neither acute nor 1-year survival benet after ruptured AAA repair. Cho etal. reported 20% operative mortality with endovascular repair and 38.1% with open repair (p= 0.27) in patients who had rupture of AAA with prior EVAR [1]. Catenescu et al. reported 121 patients from 2001 to 2015 with group A consisting of 17 patients who had a prior endo­graft repair and 104 who had a de novo rupture of AAA.They reported mortality of 44.7% with a
previous endograft group and 42.3% in de novo group (p not signicant) [2].
Ruptured AAA in a patient with prior endo-
graft should be managed by endovascular approach or open approach depending upon the ndings of CTA abdomen and pelvis. In this patient, rupture of AAA was due to large Type IB endoleak and probably not well seen on ultra­sound studies. It is possible that a CTA scan of the abdomen and pelvis may have detected Type IB endoleak prior to its rupture as renal function in this patient was satisfactory.

History andProcedures
An 83-year-old male underwent endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with AneuRx graft for a
6.5 cm abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) with 45–60° aortic neck angulation on May 19, 2008, under spinal anesthesia. Main body (28×16×165mm) was deployed from the right femoral artery and contralateral iliac limb (16× 16 × 135 mm). Another left iliac extension limb (16×16×115mm) was also deployed. Right iliac extension limb (16×16×115mm) was nec­essary to extend the graft just proximal to the right common iliac artery bifurcation. Following angio­plasty of the aortic neck and overlapping zones with Reliant™ balloon (Medtronic, Dublin, Ireland), completion aortogram was performed which showed Type IA endoleak. After another attempt at aortic neck angioplasty, an aortic cuff 28×40mm (AneuRx) was deployed, and comple­tion run showed marked decrease in Type IA endoleak. Patient underwent follow-up CTA of the abdomen and pelvis 3 days later which showed Type IA endoleak. Patient was taken back to the operating room and a Palmaz stent 39× 10mm was deployed using a 16F sheath in the right fem­oral artery over a 28mm ×4cm Z-MED Braun balloon. Completion run showed satisfactory reso­lution of Type IA endoleak.
Patient had a CTA of the abdomen and pelvis performed 3 years later which showed satisfac­tory exclusion of the endoleak, but there was evi-
dence of graft migration about 1 cm below the left renal artery (Fig.71.1). Patient came for fol­low- up for 3years (till 2011) and underwent fol­low- up imaging with CTA of the abdomen and pelvis alternating with abdominal aortic ultra­sound at six monthly intervals. CTA of the abdo­men and pelvis in January 2011 showed aneurysm sac 5.9×5.9cm with no evidence of endoleak.
Patient was lost to follow-up till he came to the emergency room on February 19, 2019, (Fig. 71.2) with syncope. CTA of the abdomen and pelvis showed ruptured AAA with Type I and Type III endoleak with distal migration of the AneuRx graft. In addition, there was poor lling of the right renal artery, possibly from a large ret­roperitoneal hematoma. He was taken to the hybrid operating room, right femoral artery was exposed, and a percutaneous access to the left femoral artery was obtained with insertion of 6F sheath. On the right side, glidewire was exchanged with Lunderquist wire using Kumpe catheter, and a 16F sheath was deployed. Two aortic cuffs, rst cuff 28× 28× 70 and second aortic cuff 28 × 28 × 49 were deployed. Completion aortogram showed persistence of Type IA endoleak. Four EndoAnchors (HeliFx) at the aortic neck was followed by placement of Palmaz stent. As the aortic neck was short and angulated another (third) aortic cuff 32×32×49 was deployed to resolve Type IA endoleak (Fig.71.3). Completion run showed partial cov­erage of the left renal artery by the third aortic

selected patients who had undergone EVAR for ruptured AAA [1]. Of 2278 patients with rup­tured AAA, 2230 had no renal coverage, 30 had single renal artery coverage, and 18 had coverage of both renal arteries. On multivariant regression analysis, bilateral renal artery coverage was asso­ciated with increased odds of in-hospital mortal­ity (OR 5.7), permanent dialysis/30-day death (OR 9.5), and permanent dialysis (OR 47.5). Single renal artery coverage increased the odds to increase the odds of permanent dialysis/ 30-day mortality (OR 2.8). From their observations, they concluded that bilateral renal artery coverage in ruptured AAA signicantly increases in-hospital mortality and lowers long-term survival. Single renal artery coverage increases the risk of perma­nent dialysis/30-day death primarily due to its effect on permanent hemodialysis. It does not signicantly affect the in-hospital mortality or 1-year survival it may be a viable option in select patients with AAA.In this patient intentional left renal artery coverage resulted in permanent hemodialysis with patient’s survival for eight more months.

This case also illustrates that a signicant number of patients do not come for regular fol­low- up following EVAR. This patient stopped coming for imaging studies 3years following his index operation. Hicks et al. evaluated 11, 309 patients (2003–2015) who underwent elective EVAR with 78% in-person follow-up, 11% phone call follow-up, and 11% loss to follow-up [2]. Patients who are lost to follow-up had worse sur­vival outcomes (84.9% vs 91.9% long rank, P<.001).

replacing traditional open abdominal aortic aneu­rysm repair as the rst line modality to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms. This case highlights a few important teaching points:
1. Importance of adhering to IFU in patients
with challenging anatomy
A review of literature shows that strong body of evidence supports strictly adhering to IFU protocol for aortic endografts. Patients who undergo EVAR, per the IFU instructions, tend to have improved outcomes as compared to those who undergo EVARs without strictly adhering to IFU criteria [3]. In this particular case, aortic angulation may have precluded the use of endograft at the time of index oper­ation. One can argue that choosing open aortic aneurysm repair over EVAR at the time of ini­tial operation could have prevented the long­term complications.
2. Importance of realizing the impact of Type 1A
endoleak on completion angiograms
The fundamental concept of EVAR is that there should not be a Type 1A endoleak at the completion of the operation. Presence of Type 1A endoleak is considered by most experts as the equivalent of if the aneurysm was never repaired [4]. More importantly, a thoughtful consideration should be given to determine the exact cause of the Type 1A endoleak at the time of the index operation. Graft undersizing, lack of adequate seal zone, and presence of large amount of thrombus are important causes of such endoleaks. The cause of Type 1A endoleak should be deter­mined and treated adequately at the time of diagnosis. Ideally, no patient undergoing EVAR should leave the operating room with Type1 endoleak.
3. Ensuring long-term follow-up with imaging
studies
Patient selection at the time of choice of operation (EVAR vs open AAA repair) should consider several factors into account. Patients’ compliance with regular follow-up appoint­ments, along with commitment to obtain CTAs at the follow-up appointments is cru­cial. Patients who are lost to follow-up after EVAR have been shown to have worst out­comes [2]. For patients, who are considered unreliable for long-term commitment to follow- ups, open abdominal aortic aneurysm may be preferable.
To summarize, this case highlights several
important teaching points, which should be con­sidered in anatomic selection for EVAR, address­ing Type 1 A endoleaks on completion angiograms in the operating room and stressing the impor­tance of long-term follow-up. In patients with unfavorable anatomy and lack of commitment to long-term follow-up, open AAA repair may be preferable to EVAR.

Physical Examination

An 81-year-old male presented to the emergency room of the hospital visiting from out of state on July 8, 2017, with severe back pain. CTA of the abdomen and pelvis showed probable Type III endoleak (separation of component parts) and possible Type IA endoleak (Fig.72.1).

Procedure

Patient was emergently taken to the operating room because of signicant hypotension a 32mm ×2 cm aortic balloon (Z-MED, Braun) was inated through a 16F sheath. On the left side a 5F sheath was inserted percutaneously. On the right side, an angle stiff glidewire (035– 180cm long) was advanced, but it could not be advanced into the body of the endograft as it lodged in the aneurysm sac from the separated components of the endograft (Type III endoleak). With the help of Kumpe catheter, glidewire was exchanged for Lunderquist wire and a 16×20×93mm Endurant Ireland) iliac limb was deployed to close the Type III endoleak. For management Type IA endoleak, a 28× 49 mm Endurant cuff was deployed fol­lowed by angioplasty by Reliant™ balloon (Medtronic). As the Type IA endoleak persisted, a 10×40mm Palmaz stent over a 32-mm-×4-cm­long Z-MED balloon was deployed through the

16F sheath. Completion run showed resolution of Type IA and Type III endoleak (Fig.72.2).
Because of the development of abdominal
compartment syndrome, a left ank incision was made to drain the retroperitoneal space, and 400 cc blood mixed with serosanguinous uid was removed followed by application of a wound vac. Removal of wound vac followed by secondary wound closure was performed on 14th postoperative day. In the postoperative period, patient developed new onset of atrial brillation which was managed with low-dose beta blockers and warfarin. Postoperative CTA showed resolution of Type IA and Type III endoleak with satisfactory exclusion of the aneurysm and marked decrease in the retroperi­toneal hematoma (Fig.72.3).
Review of records from out of state hospital
showed that on June 1, 2006, patient underwent endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for a 9cm infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) using Cook endoprosthesis. His medical comor­bidities included coronary artery disease (CABG twice), gout, hypertension, Type II diabetes mel­litus, and hyperlipidemia.
Patient moved back to the state of his resi-
dence in August 2017 and was followed by a vas­cular surgeon. He underwent CTA scan of the abdomen and pelvis in March 2018 which showed recurrence of Type IA endoleak. He underwent preoperative stenting of the renal arteries with iCAST™ stent (Atrium) on April 5,
