RESUMO
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening disease, with an extremely high risk of death when ruptured. With the increase in life expectancy AAA is becoming more prevalent in aging patients. Elective and emergency procedures in elderly patients with AAA are becoming more common, but the indications for aortic repair and outcomes in geriatric patients are debatable. In our report, we present long-term results of a successful endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) of a ruptured juxtarenal aortic aneurysm complicated by hypovolemia and myocardial infarction in a 92-year-old patient. No endoleaks or bleedings were detected with CT angiography in the post-operative period. After two years following the procedure, the patient is doing well and can take care of himself; there was no disease progression as confirmed by ultrasonography. In conclusion, complicated abdominal aortic aneurysms in nonagenarians can be successfully treated by EVAR with fine long-term results.
