Successful Management of an Infected Aortic Stent Graft in a Liver Transplanted Patient

We report on a 57-year-old female liver transplanted patient who underwent endovascular aneurysm repair because of an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm. Two months later, she developed an infection, and positron emission tomography computed tomography detected a paraprosthetic abscess. Explantation of the endoprosthesis and aortic reconstruction with a Y-shaped silver graft was made. The patient was discharged on the 12th postoperative day and shows up regularly in our outpatients department in a good clinical condition. After meticulous research of the current literature, this is the first published case of the successful management of an infected endovascular aortic stent in a liver transplanted patient.
