Abstract EN
We report two HIV infected patients with ruptured abdominal aneurysm by using endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) technique.
A 59-year-old Thai man had a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm and a 57-year-old man had a ruptured iliac artery aneurysm.
Both patients had a CD4 level below 200 μ/L indicating a low immune status at admission.
They were treated by EVAR.
Neither patient had any complications in 3 months postoperatively.
EVAR may have a role in HIV patients with ruptured abdominal aneurysm together with very low immunity.
