Pararenal Aortic Ulcer Repair.

CONCLUSION: Encouraging results of endovascular treatment of pararenal PAUs were observed. One major and fatal complication was encountered, which underlines the complexity and risks of the techniques. Another patient required re-intervention owing to an endoleak following off label use of covered stents for Ch-EVAR. FEVAR, which generally requires a custom made graft, was increasingly applied over the study period, potentially because of an increased awareness of this distinct pathology allowing for elective procedure planning. Ch-EVAR and hybrid procedures were predominantly used in symptomatic patients, whereas FEVAR was the preferred elective treatment option. PMID: 26874671 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
