Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Inflammatory aortic aneurysms are unusual vascular lesions and most commonly involve the infrarenal segment of the abdominal aorta. These complex aneurysms represent a challenge to the vascular surgeon and become even more difficult as the extent of the aneurysm and size of the inflammatory mass increase. Although well described, few cases of giant inflammatory aneurysms are reported. In this case, we review the clinical presentation and surgical management of a patient with a giant pararenal abdominal aortic aneurysm and highlight an uncommon morphologic pattern of aortic disease and provide a review of relevant literature. |
