Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the management of concurrent abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and limb artery stenosis.

Methods

The clinical data of 21 hospital patients with concurrent AAA and limb artery stenosis admitted to our hospital, between January 1991 and January 2010 were analyzed retrospectively.

Results

The incidence of concurrent AAA and limb artery stenosis increased with age. It was more frequent in male than in female. Fifteen patients were operated against AAA with open surgery or endovascular stent repair. Seven cases underwent limb arterial reconstruction by simultaneous or staged operations. Three cases died from multiple system organ failure (MSOF) with the mortality of 14%, all suffered by inappropriate management of the limbs, whose limbs went necrosis. One patient had amputation. Five patients were medically conservative treated.

Conclusion

Cautions should be paid to the diagnosis and management of concurrent AAA and limb artery stenosis due to the high mortality.
