Complex Repair of Juxtarenal Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm with an Anatomical Variant of the Renal Arteries.

ABSTRACT

Hybrid repair involves both open and endovascular interventions. This technique has been increasingly used in treating complex aortic aneurysms as an alternative to conventional open repairs, mainly because of the avoidance of aortic cross-clamping and the associated increased ischemia time to the viscera. We report a hybrid repair of a juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm complicated by a nonstandard right renal artery originating just proximal to the aortic bifurcation in the setting of a nonfunctional left kidney.
