[Anesthesiological support during performance of endovascular prosthesis for the infrarenal aorta aneurysm]

The results of treatment of 10 patients, suffering the abdominal aorta aneurysm, using the third generation bifurcational prosthesis Excluder, are presented. Endoprosthesis was performed under local infiltrating anesthesia (LIA) and light sedation, in one observation the LIA was incidentally changed to general anesthesia and artificial lung ventilation. In the early postoperative period the complications did not occur. LIA may be successfully applied if the patient was thoroughly prepared and informed, the arteries were accurately dissected and intravascular apparatuses inserted, as well as the performance of the aorta endoprosthesis for the abdominal aorta aneurysm was not durable.
