A 78-year-old man was referred for surgical treatment of a 55 × 59 mm abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). However, clinical and instrumental data revealed a more complex case than was initially thought, the patient having a large AAA in the setting of severe symptomatic aortic stenosis with multiple comorbidities. Following multidisciplinary discussion, a combined transcatheter aortic valve |
implantation and endovascular aneurysm repair was performed. The present case represents a good example of the importance of the heart team in the project of tailored operative strategies, and in the optimization of the interventional therapy for the individual patient.
