Urgent endovascular mycotic aortic arch aneurysm repair using in situ laser fenestration and selective arterial perfusion with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

In recent years, mycotic aortic aneurysms have been increasingly treated successfully by endovascular means. The introduction of custom-made fenestrated and branched devices, parallel graft techniques, and in situ fenestration has enabled total endovascular treatment also for arch pathologies. We describe a total endovascular repair of a mycotic arch aneurysm with in situ laser fenestration using venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to preserve flow to vital organs.
