2 Figure 1 A, Preoperative computed tomographic angiography demonstrates a 4.9-mm left renal artery, a 55.4-mm infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm, and a 5.3-mm infrarenal neck length below the left renal artery. B, The aortic segment between the left renal artery and right renal artery is 24.1 mm in width. C, Postoperative computed tomographic angiography demonstrates no endoleak in the aneurysmal sac and a patent 6-mm Viabahn chimney graft to the left renal artery, accommodated with a 28-mm Excluder main body aortic graft.

3 Figure 2 Illustration shows the estimated anatomic position of the main aortic and chimney endografts. R represents the radius of the native aorta, A represents the estimated cross-sectional area of the main aortic endograft, r represents the radius of the chimney graft, and L represents the estimated perimeter of the main endograft.
