Abstract

A 77-year-old man with an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm was referred with a complex medical history including pancreatitis, chronic renal failure, atrial fibrillation, and a cerebral infarction. He also had a history of atherosclerosis obliterans, treated with a vascular bypass using an 8-mm prosthetic graft 9 years previously. His complicated anatomy, including a small access route and a large common iliac artery, suggested usage of Powerlink, a bifurcated stent graft through the previously placed graft, as an access route. The patient was discharged from the hospital with a type III endoleak, which was completely resolved 5 months after discharge.
