Sumario:We describe a technique for antegrade in situ laser fenestration that has several advantages in the setting of ruptured thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. This technique involves rapid aneurysm sealing by deployment of aortic stent graft, followed by sequential incorporation of branch vessels using a laser probe through steerable sheath. The advantages of this technique include (1) rapid seal of the ruptured aneurysm, (2) preservation of the visceral and renal branch perfusion, (3) use of an off-the-shelf device, and (4) the ability to be performed without general anesthesia.
