  • PURPOSE: The concept of a single endovascular valve-carrying conduit device was designated endo-Bentall, but published experience is limited to a single case. This technical note describes an alternative modular endo-Bentall technique and a novel access technique to implant it.

    TECHNIQUE: A 82-year-old woman with chest pain referred for a 10 cm symptomatic aneurysm of the distal arch and descending aorta. An ascending aortic aneurysm of 5.5 cm prevented endovascular aortic arch repair due to lack of a proximal landing zone. The technique is a modular approach combining a physician-modified endograft (PMEG) with 3 large fenestrations for coronary artery perfusion and a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). A "rendez-vous access" with a transapical and transfemoral through-and-through wire offered rapid sequential deployment in a modular fashion of both components. The PMEG was deployed first, landing 5 mm deep in the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) and the transcatheter aortic valve was implanted few millimeters below. The endo-Bentall procedure was combined with endovascular aortic arch repair.

    CONCLUSION: A modular endo-Bentall procedure combining a PMEG and TAVI is feasible and adaptable to emergent setting using the "rendez-vous access."
