Abstract
A 78-year-old man was diagnosed with an abdominal aortic aneurysm with a meandering mesenteric artery. We performed abdominal aortic replacement and inferior mesenteric artery reconstruction using intraoperative inferior mesenteric artery perfusion during surgery. A 4-Fr arterial sheath was inserted into the left brachial artery, and a 10-Fr balloon catheter was inserted into the inferior mesenteric artery for perfusion. The intraoperative intestinal blood flow was satisfactory, and the patient's postoperative course was favorable. This method was an easy and effective option for abdominal aortic surgery in patients with a meandering mesenteric artery.
