BACKGROUND: To report a case of multiple additional procedures after successful endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm.
METHODS: An endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair with a bifurcated aortic Vanguard endograft successfully performed in 1999 resulted in multiple complications, including endoleaks and a row separation, treated endovascularly. Subsequently, tuberculosis sepsis and prosthesis infection resulted in long-term antibiotic treatment. Additional graft leaks, aneurysm sack growth, and sack ruptures were also treated endovascularly because the patient consistently denied open repair. Endovascular procedures, however, did not solve the problem, turning to be increasingly challenging. The patient finally approved open graft removal and aortobifemoral reconstruction that were successfully performed 11 years after the initial endograft implantation.
RESULTS: The patient has recovered from surgery well and is asymptomatic. No evidence of bacterial colonization was found according to the specimen taken during the laparotomy.
CONCLUSION: Vanguard and other first-generation aortic endografts are associated with high incidence of complications and reinterventions. Open surgery is a method of choice in similar cases.
