Total laparoscopic suprarenal aortic coral reef removal.

Symptomatic suprarenal coral reef aortic lesions have a poor natural history and threaten visceral and lower extremity perfusion. We report our experience with total laparoscopic suprarenal aortic coral reef removal in three patients, aged 46, 48, and 52 years. Coral reef lesions were associated with aortoiliac occlusive lesions in two cases. One patient had an associated thoracic coral reef lesion. Patients underwent total laparoscopic coral reef removal combined with laparoscopic aortobifemoral bypass in two cases and open thoracic coral reef removal in one case. Postoperative courses were uneventful. All patients were alive with patent revascularization after a mean follow-up of 38 months, 29 months, and 1 month.
