Renal artery aneurism

Challenging aneurism: cross and treat

"iCover flexibility has allowed us to reach this angled lesion. With it’s unique visibility is posible to locate each of the stents implanted."

Gender:

Female

Age:

37

37 year old women with an aneurism in the renal artery. It was treated as a prophylactic measure before rupture
Very tortuous artery

Procedure

1

To start the procedure, the right femoral access was used, with a 9F introducer and a Lunderquist guidewire

2

A Sergeant support catheter was needed in order to arrive to the aneurism

3

It was difficult to arrive to artery, due to the high angulation, and Sergeant support catheter was used (Image 2).

As it’s a braided catheter, Sergeant offers high push, torque capacity and resistance to kinking even in angulated arteries as this one:

4

The 1st iCover (5x27mm) arrived to the lesion easily, demonstrating the high flexibility of the stent crimped (Image 3).

Before implanting iCover, 3 coils were used. Then, the iCover was implanted (Image 4).

5

A 2nd iCover (7x27mm) was needed in order to completely seal the aneurism. An Oceanus 35 was used to post-expand the iCover to 8mm (Image 6).

The uniqueness of iCover are the radiopaque markers. They allow to see where each stent is, ever doing an overlapping.
