Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair associated with a pelvic kidney is extremely rare. To date only 14 cases have been reported in the li terature. The main problem during aortic cross clamping is kidney pres ervation. The purpose of this article is to record and additional case of AAA repair associated with a native pelvic kidney. The preservatio n has been successfully achieved by a distal aortic double clamping.
