dc.description.abstract | Aortoenteric fistula (AEF) is one of the most challenging diagnostic and therapeutic entities in vascular surgery. AEF can occur either primarily involving the aorta and the gastrointestinal tract or, more commonly, secondary to previous aortic reconstructive surgery. Traditionally, the treatment of AEF includes graft excision and extra-anatomic bypass surgery or in situ graft replacement. However, recently endovascular repair has emerged as an alternative therapeutic option. In this article, we present published and current evidence for endovascular repair of primary and secondary AEF. When endovascular treatment is applied where appropriate, early outcomes seem to be superior compared to open surgery. This benefit may be lost during long-term follow-up, implying that a staged approach with early conversion to in situ grafting may realize the best patient survival and morbidity. Lifelong administration of antibiotics is associated with a reduction in re-infection. An endovascular approach used as a bridging procedure in unstable patients is recommended, followed by definitive open therapy, if feasible, in patients with good life expectancy. © 2017 Elsevier Inc. | en |
