Sumario: | We describe the feasibility of covered endovascular reconstruction of the aortic bifurcation (CERAB) through a single femoral access and a steerable sheath. We present the technique, which we used for a patient with severe aortoiliac calcification and bilateral involvement of the common femoral artery. The patient underwent endarterectomy of the left common femoral artery plus CERAB with an aortic stent graft and bilateral covered stents for the common iliac artery with kissing dilatation with a steerable sheath using only left femoral access. CERAB can be performed using unilateral access with the aid of a steerable sheath, reducing the potential for access site complications. |
