case_images: Upon admission, emergent computed tomography angiography revealed a fissured infrarenal aneurysm of 85 mm in diameter with a dilated supra and juxtarenal abdominal aorta (Fig 1, A). The procedure consisted in open surgical repair with a 60-minute infrarenal cross-clamping and interposition of a 22-mm Dacron aortic graft (Fig 1, B).
case_images: Six-month postoperative angio-computed tomography (CT) scan showing a patent graft and significant enlargement of the visceral aorta above the reconstruction.
