Abstract 

We report a case of a 58-year-old-man with a 55-mm infrarenal aortic aneurysm treated with an Anaconda™ modular endograft. An error during a delivery-system pull-back manoeuvre caused the migration of the endograft. This was resolved with an aorto-uniiliac conversion and a femoro-femoral crossover bypass. Since a ready-made aorto-uniiliac system was not available, we customised one using a new Anaconda device, squeezing the contralateral gate and occluding this limb with coils.
