[Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair using a graft with prefabricated branches]

A 55-year-old male was referred to our hospital for abdominal examination and was diagnosed as Crawford type III thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm by computed tomography (CT). Reconstruction of visceral vessels was performed using a Gealweave Coselli Thoracoabdominal Graft, which is currently clinically available. This vascular prosthesis, which is prefabricated 4 branches, requires no intraoperative preparation of the side branches, and the risk of postoperative recurrent aneurysm may be reduced following individual reconstruction of all 4 visceral vessels because of limited remaining aneurismal wall. Therefore, this graft is expected to be useful for this procedure.
