Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Adequate proximal neck length is important for proper endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). Placement of endografts in AAAs with relatively short proximal necks may require covering the origin of accessory renal arteries. Exclusion of these arteries carries the theoretical concern of regional renal ischemia associated with loss of parenchyma or worsening hypertension. We reviewed our experience with accessory renal exclusions during endovascular AAA repair to determine the frequency and severity of complications. METHODS:Complete records were available for review on 311 of 325 consecutive patients treated with endovascular grafts for AAAs from February 6, 1996, to March 15, 2001. The presence of accessory renal arteries was ascertained from preoperative/intraoperative aortography or from computed tomographic scanning. Sizes of the accessories were measured by using the main renal arteries as a reference. Considerations for excluding the accessory renal arteries were based on the likelihood of successful proximal attachment to healthy aorta, an accessory vessel whose size does not exceed the diameter of the main renal artery, and the absence of renal disease. RESULTS:The mean follow-up was 11.5 months. Fifty-two accessory renal arteries were documented in 37 patients (12%), ranging from 1 to > or =3 per patient. Of these, 26 accessory renal arteries were covered in 24 patients. Patients ranged in age from 57 to 85 years (mean, 74.1 years), with 20 men and 4 women. The Ancure device was used in 23 patients and the Excluder device in one. Of the accessories excluded, 22 originated above the aneurysm and 4 originated directly from the aneurysm itself. There were no perioperative mortalities. One patient died 5 months after surgery from an unrelated condition. There was one type I (distal) endoleak and no type II endoleaks. Five patients (21%) had segmental renal infarction associated with the side of accessory renal artery exclusion. Only one patient with segmental infarction had significant postoperative hypertension that resulted in changes in blood pressure medication. The blood pressure reverted to normal 3 months later. One patient with a stenotic left main renal artery required exclusion of the accessory renal artery for successful proximal attachment. Serum creatinine levels remained unchanged throughout follow-up in all but one patient, in whom progressive postoperative renal failure developed despite normal renal flow scan, presumably from intraoperative manipulation and contrast nephropathy. CONCLUSION:Exclusion of accessory renal arteries to facilitate endovascular AAA repair appears to be well tolerated. Long-term sequelae seem infrequent and mild.
