Abstract

Endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm is commonplace at present. It has got lower mortality and morbidity compared to open surgical repair. However, it requires long-term follow-up. The main complications are endoleaks, stent migrations, kinks, and rupture. Ureteric obstruction is uncommon but an important complication following endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms. We present a case of ureteric obstruction in a solitary kidney following endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm and its successful management by ureteric stenting. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
