The Use of a Commercially Available Endovascular Filter Catheter (Capturex(®)) for Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) in a Patient with a Coral Reef Aorta

Due to the risk of mobilizing plaque fragments, transfemoral TEVAR is a potentially dangerous procedure in patients with a coral reef aorta. We describe a practical method for transfemoral TEVAR in a patient with a degenerative thoracic aneurysm and a coral reef aorta. After placing a filter cathete...

description Due to the risk of mobilizing plaque fragments, transfemoral TEVAR is a potentially dangerous procedure in patients with a coral reef aorta. We describe a practical method for transfemoral TEVAR in a patient with a degenerative thoracic aneurysm and a coral reef aorta. After placing a filter catheter in the abdominal aorta via a contralateral percutaneous femoral access, a working channel through the distal thoracic aorta was created with a balloon-expandable stent graft in the coral reef segment. Thereafter, transfemoral TEVAR could be performed successfully, without any complications. The additional use of a percutaneously placed filter catheter potentially allows reduction of peripheral embolism and hence may prevent patients from more invasive treatment.
