Angiography and the placement of the Amplatzer® Vascular Plug in the aortic stump. Angiography via the axillo-bi-femoral bypass demonstrating the infrarenal aortic stump (a), the duodenum (d) and the ADF marked with the arrow (↓). The angiographic catheter is marked with C and the guide wire with G. The upper graph (a) demonstrates contrast passage from the aorta through the ADF towards the duodenum. The middle graph (b) was taken 5 min following release of a 16-mm Amplatzer® Vascular Plug (P) within the aortic stump, and demonstrates minor contrast passage from the aortic stump towards the duodenal loop. The lower graph (c), 23 min later, demonstrates successful closure of the aortic stump with no further contrast leakage through the ADF
