Today's episode is the second of our two part series on ruptured AAA repairs. We discuss the case of a 72 year old man with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm that is contained, and who is scheduled for an urgent endovascular repair within the interventional radiology suite with special guest, Dr Lahiru Amaratunge.
Apologies for the audio quality in this episode - even though it sounds like we recorded on a submarine, we can assure you we were sitting in our study the entire time.
