Abstract

GOMES, Miguel Lemos et al. Endovascular repair of aorto-iliac aneurysms with bilateral iliac branch devices. Angiol Cir Vasc [online]. 2018, vol.14, n.2, pp.59-63. ISSN 1646-706X.

Aorto-iliac aneurysms involve both common iliac arteries in 30% of cases. Endovascular treatment can be performed using combined revascularization and embolization techniques, but in selected cases, the preservation of the two hypogastric arteries appears to offer a clear advantage. Thus, in order to accomplish this goal, it is necessary to use bilateral iliac branch devices (IBD), which require specific technical strategies. In this paper, the authors report two clinical cases, describe the technique and discuss its peculiarities

Keywords : Aneurysm; aorto-iliac; iliac branch device.
