Figure 2. Arterial reconstruction using synthetic arterial graft. (A) An I-shaped graft was used to replace the abdominal aorta from the lower level of the renal artery to the upper level of the inferior mesenteric artery (Case 1). (B) A Y-shaped graft was used to replace the aorta from the root of the inferior mesenteric artery to the common iliac arteries 1 cm distal to the bifurcation bilaterally (Case 2). CIA – common iliac artery; CIV – common iliac vein; IMA – inferior mesenteric artery; IVC – inferior vena cava; SAG – synthetic arterial graft; RA – renal artery.
