Two-stage hybrid open-endovascular repair of a Crawford type IV aortic aneurysm: therapeutic challenge

We present a case of a patient with Crawford type IV aortic thoracoabdominal aneurysm. The patient underwent hybrid repair in two stages. Initially a Dacron(r) graft was implanted surgically with revascularization of all visceral branches from the left external iliac artery (debranching). On a later date, the second stage of treatment was with an endovascular technique with bi aorto-iliac endoprosthesis. After 2 years the patient remains asymptomatic and in full working activity.
