Successful Endovascular Repair of an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm in a Patient with a Horseshoe Kidney and Accessory Renal Arteries Using an Aortic Cuff to Prevent Type II Endoleak

A 78-year-old man presented with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and a horseshoe kidney coexisting with accessory renal arteries. We performed surgical treatment with endovascular aneurysm repair, sacrificing the accessory renal arteries. We used an aortic cuff to prevent a type II endoleak from...

Sumario:A 78-year-old man presented with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and a horseshoe kidney coexisting with accessory renal arteries. We performed surgical treatment with endovascular aneurysm repair, sacrificing the accessory renal arteries. We used an aortic cuff to prevent a type II endoleak from the inferior mesenteric and accessory renal arteries. Decreased renal function was transient, and postoperative computed tomography showed no endoleak. This case report supports the feasibility of endovascular surgery for treating AAA in patients with a horseshoe kidney.
