ABSTRACT
Objective:
Isolated abdominal aortic dissection (IAAD) co-occurring with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is rather rare. The objective of this report was to discuss the adequate timing and method of surgery for this condition.Patients We encountered two operative cases, for which we carefully considered the timing and method of surgery. One patient underwent open repair 1 month after the onset, and the other patient underwent endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) 3 years after the onset.Results:
Both patients had a good postoperative recovery and are doing well 8 months after the surgery.Conclusion:
The presence of symptoms or an increase in the diameter of an AAA is important in determining the timing of intervention.
