Abstract
Objective: Acute aortic occlusion (AAO), though rare, carries a high morbidity and mortality risk. Rapid recognition and revascularization are crucial for limb and life preservation. We present a case of a hybrid approach using open thrombectomy and endovascular arterial stent grafts in lieu of an open bypass for management of AAO.
Methods: This case describes a 77-year-old man who presented with new-onset lower extremity pain with associated sensory deficits and was found to have acute infrarenal aortic occlusion. Open femoral cutdown for open thrombectomy and distal embolic protection with endovascular balloon occlusion was combined with aortic and bilateral iliac artery stenting.
Results: The patient was discharged home on post-operative day 3 with resolution of his presenting symptoms and remains asymptomatic at 1-month follow-up.
Conclusion: This technique of aorto-iliac reconstruction using stent grafts has previously been described in the setting of chronic aorto-iliac occlusive disease; however, its use has not been previously documented in the setting of acute aortic occlusion. This case illustrates the safety and feasibility of a hybrid approach to AAO, particularly in patients who are physiologically unfit for open revascularization.
