Description

Abdominal aortic aneurysms located around the major branch of the aorta were treated surgically rather than by endovascular treatment due to the complex anatomy. Recently, the treatment modality evolved towards a customized stent-graft. We report on a case of a mycotic pseudoaneurysm originating in the abdominal aorta at the level of superior mesenteric artery, which was treated with a customized stent-graft.
