We present the case of a 69-year-old man with a juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm treated with FEVAR. The patient experienced postoperative dysphagia and sepsis. Investigations revealed a perforated esophagus due to esophageal ischemia and necrosis, leading to complete esophagectomy and subsequent esophageal reconstruction. This case highlights esophageal necrosis and perforation as a potential complication of FEVAR and serves as a reminder to have a low threshold for investigating and emergently managing this condition, which otherwise has a high mortality rate. © 2020 The Authors.Persistent primitive hypoglossal artery (PPHA) is a rare internal carotid-vertebrobasilar anatomic variant. Awareness of this anomaly and its propensity for atherosclerotic disease is important to avoid misinterpretation of diagnostic studies and to allow appropriate interventional planning. As the predominant vascular supply to the anterior and posterior cerebral circulation, its luminal compromise can lead to devastating ischemic complications. Carotid endarterectomy and carotid stenting have both been performed to treat lesions involving a PPHA. Herein, we report a case of carotid endarterectomy involving a PPHA and discuss the clinical and surgical implications of a carotid lesion in the presence of a PPHA. © 2020 The Author(s).Clinical decision-making for surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms based on maximum aortic diameter presents limitations as rupture can occur below threshold for some aneurysms, whereas others are stable at large sizes. The proposed approach combines hemodynamics and geometric indices with in vivo deformation analysis to assess local weakening of the aortic wall for a case of impending rupture that was confirmed during open surgical repair.
