Purpose: To report a rare case of mediastinal bronchial artery aneurysm successfully treated with an endovascular stent-graft. Case Report: A 79-year-old man with a history of tuberculosis was admitted to our hospital complaining of worsening hoarseness. Examination revealed a large mediastinal bronchial artery aneurysm located near the origin of the artery. Since neither surgical intervention nor transcatheter embolization was feasible, an endovascular stent-graft repair was performed using a newly developed stent-graft constructed from a nitinol stent and a thin membrane of polyester. Postprocedural angiography showed satisfactory exclusion of the aneurysm. The patient made an uneventful recovery. The 18-month computed tomographic scan documented continued exclusion of the aneurysm, with no evidence of endoleak, graft thrombosis, or migration. Conclusions: When conventional procedures are too complicated for bronchial artery aneurysms, endovascular stent-graft repair can be a useful approach.

Endovascular Stent Graft Repair

A ruptured aneurysm of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) is very rare. In recent years, there have been some reports of successful endovascular therapy of SMA aneurysms. However, endovascular stent graft repair of a ruptured SMA aneurysm has not been reported previously. We report on a 50-year-old man with a ruptured aneurysm of the proximal SMA. Using an endovascular approach, the aneurysm was initially excluded with 2 stent grafts. Two weeks following the first procedure, computed tomography angiography revealed a proximal endoleak, which was treated with another stent graft. The endovascular stent graft repair finally resulted in total exclusion of the ruptured aneurysm. Patency of the SMA was maintained and no ischemic complications occurred.

Background: Persistent sciatic artery is a rare embryological vascular anomaly, with an incidence of 0.01%–0.05%. Up to 60% of persistent sciatic artery patients will develop aneurysms that can subsequently lead to distal embolization and a high risk of limb loss. Method: Here we report a case with acute limb ischemia caused by thrombus in a right persistent sciatic artery aneurysm. The patient underwent endovascular treatment by deploying a 10 × 150 mm stent graft (Viabahn) in the persistent sciatic artery and two self-expanding bare stents (10 × 40 mm, 10 × 60 mm, SMART) in the stent graft to reinforce the radial resistive force. In addition, we conducted a literature review of articles published in PubMed from 2001 to 2018 regarding stent graft repair of complete persistent sciatic artery aneurysms. A total of 13 articles reported 13 patients with complete persistent sciatic artery aneurysms who underwent endovascular stent graft repair. Result: A favorable result was obtained for this patient, and computed tomographic angiography at 6 months of follow-up revealed patent stent graft. Most articles reported favorable results. Conclusion: Favorable results can be achieved with endovascular stent graft repair and anticoagulation therapy for complete persistent sciatic artery aneurysms.
