Three valiant captivia stent grafts were implanted during an initial staged endovascular procedure to treat a 70mm symptomatic thor acoabdominal aneurysm.A pre-operative computed tomography scan identified an occluded left subclavian artery and bilateral internal iliac occlusion, and the external iliac arteries were described as diseased and small; a high risk for paralysis was discussed prior to proceeding it was reported that during the index procedure a 10 mm non-medtronic stent was placed in the left external iliac artery and ballooned to 10 mm for graft placement, and the three valiant captivia stent grafts were placed from the level of the left carotid artery down to the celiac artery in the following order: vamf3834c150tu proximally, vamc3632c150tu middle graft and vamc3430c150tu distally.Visceral vessels were pre-stented for a planned second-stage procedure.The patient initially tolerated the procedure and then developed leg weakness with some partial paralysis one day post-operatively.The patient returned to the operating room for placement of a spinal drain and a carotid-subclavian bypass, and was reported to be gradually improving with some movement of the legs.It was noted that the carotid subclavian bypass was a planned procedure at the next stage since it was already occluded.The spinal drain was not part of the plan and was placed due to the ischemia.According to the physician, the cause of the event was anatomy involving occlusion of the subclavian artery and both internal iliac arteries.Post-operative complications were reported to be impacting the timing of the second-stage procedure.The patient will continue to be monitored.
