Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA): Bifurcated Graft Interposition

An abdominal aortic aneurysm bifurcated graft interposition is a surgical procedure where a prosthetic graft is used to replace a weakened or enlarged section of the abdominal aorta. The graft is bifurcated, allowing it to connect to the iliac arteries, thereby restoring normal blood flow and preventing the aneurysm from rupturing. If the ischemia time is expected to last more than 2 hours, we start with a distal (iliac) anastomosis

All Steps in Detail

Step 1: Exposition of the aneurysm

Step 2: First iliac anastomosis

Step 3: Proximal (aortic) anastomosis

Step 4: Second iliac anastomosis
