Abstract/OtherAbstract:
INTRODUCTION: To report treatment of bilateral evolutive iliac artery aneurysms three years after EVAR.
REPORT: Three years following uncomplicated Zenith AAA stent-graft placement, the patient presented with aneurysmal common iliac arteries. Through a combined femoro-brachial approach, both iliac artery aneurysms were excluded, and a Zenith branch graft was placed to preserve the left hypogastric artery. The procedure was technically successful and free from complication. One year post-procedure, the Zenith branch graft remains stable.
DISCUSSION: A combined femoro-brachial approach, with iliac branch graft placement, offered a solution to a challenging scenario.
