Aortic Balloon Occlusion in Repair of Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

Abstract

This case report details a novel technique implemented in Vietnam. When full equipment is unavailable, we adapt it by using aortic balloon occlusion to enhance the patient’s hemodynamics and mitigate the risk of intraprocedural exsanguination. This approach effectively addresses the rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysms in patients with unstable hemodynamic conditions.
