Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Simultaneous open surgery has been advocated in the elective management of abdominal aortic aneurysm patients with significant ischemic heart disease, as staged procedures risk worsening myocardial ischemia or aortic rupture, depending on which is the first intervention. The argument for combined aneurysm and valve repair is less established. We describe the case of a 70-year-old female who while awaiting aortic valve replacement suffered rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The patient was successfully managed with emergency combined open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair and open aortic valve replacement. We would advocate that such a strategy be considered as a salvage technique in similarly difficult management dilemmas. |
