Staple aneurysmorrhaphy and suture venoplasty for repair of large bilateral external iliac vein aneurysms in an adolescent
Aneurysms of the iliac veins are very rare; thus, the best approach to management has not yet been defined. We have presented the case of a 17-year-old boy with incidentally identified large bilateral external iliac vein aneurysms. Given the risks of potentially fatal thromboembolism or rupture, he...

description | Aneurysms of the iliac veins are very rare; thus, the best approach to management has not yet been defined. We have presented the case of a 17-year-old boy with incidentally identified large bilateral external iliac vein aneurysms. Given the risks of potentially fatal thromboembolism or rupture, he underwent definitive repair of his aneurysms using staple aneurysmorrhaphy combined with additional vein tailoring by suture venoplasty, a technique not previously described for these aneurysms. We have also discussed the etiology, presentation, and our surgical technique to manage this rare condition. |
