Abstract:
Y-graft replacement was successfully performed in a patient aged 93 years with ruptured infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm. The patient was in shock on arrival and underwent an emergency operation with the administration of cathecholamines. The ruptured infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm with a large hematoma, which was located in the area of the left common iliac artery, was 10cm in the maximum diameter. The bilateral common iliac arteries were strongly calcified and occluded. The distal end of the graft was anastomosed to the external iliac artery. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful.
