Comparison between Aorto-bifemoral Bypass and Aorto-iliac Kissing Stent in Patients with Complex Aorto-iliac Obstructive Disease

Nutrition and the Aorto-Iliac Atherosclerotic Disease

Concomitant Celiac, Superior Mesenteric, Renal, and Aorto-bi-iliac Aneurysms

Visceral artery aneurysms are rarely reported. They can occur in the context of a variety of underlying diseases. These aneurysms may coexist with non-visceral arterial aneurysms.Here we describe an 80-year-old man with concomitant superior mesenteric, celiac, renal, and aorto-bi-iliac aneurysms. The patient was a hypertensive and hyperlipidemic old man with history of transient ischemic attack...

Metabolic changes after aorto-iliac occlusion.

Contemporary outcomes after endovascular treatment for aorto-iliac artery disease.

BACKGROUND The patency and complications in aorto-iliac (AI) stenting remain poorly understood. The aim of this paper was to investigate the safety and efficacy after AI stenting. METHODS AND RESULTS This study was performed as a large-scale multicenter, retrospective registry. A total of 2,147 consecutive patients with AI disease were enrolled. The safety endpoints were procedure success, co...

Outcome and quality of life after aorto-bifemoral bypass surgery

BACKGROUND Aorto-bifemoral bypass (AFB) is commonly performed to treat aorto-iliac disease and a durable long-term outcome is achieved. Most studies documenting beneficial outcomes after AFB have been limited to mortality and morbidity rates, costs and length of hospital stay (LOS). Few studies have examined the dependency of patients and how their perception of their own health changes after s...
