Abstract:
Surgical prostheses made of Dacron have been widely used in cardiovascular surgery for decades with proven reliability and excellent reputation for long-term endurance. Nevertheless, an extremely rare complication, namely late non-anastomotic graft rupture, due to intrinsic structural prosthetic disruption can occur. We present herein a clinical case report concerning successful endovascular treatment of a patient with non-anastomotic rupture of a bifurcated graft implanted 18 years ago for an infrarenal aortic aneurysm.
