Abstract
Although the association between abdominal aortic aneurysm and pelvic kidney is rare, previous reports have described various methods of repair with successful preservation of pelvic kidney function. We describe a unique case complicated by aortic dissection. Successful intra-operative perfusion of the kidney was maintained via a temporary axillorenal shunt.
