Bilateral isolated internal iliac artery aneurysms treated by bifurcated stent-graft combined with the coil embolization: a case report

چکیده
We report the case of an 80-year-old patient with bilateral isolated internal iliac artery aneurysms (IIIAAs), which were diagnosed by computer tomography angiography (CTA). Aneurysms with short proximal necks and large diameters were treated with coils, followed by placement of a bifurcated stent-graft within the aortic and external iliac arteries. When ectopic embolism and a type III endoleak were present, they were overcome by removing the coil from the common femoral artery and placing another stent-graft. The patient tolerated the procedure well, and at 7 days and 6 months after the surgery, no endoleak was present, and bilateral IIIAAs were found to be totally thrombosed on follow-up CTA. The patient has remained well so far. Therefore, bifurcated stent-graft combined with the coil embolization may be an effective alternative treatment option for bilateral IIIAAs, especially for patients with high risks and special anatomical structure.

Endovascular Treatment of Isolated Bilateral Common Iliac Artery Aneurysms Using Iliac Branched Stent Graft
Endovascular treatment of isolated bilateral common iliac artery aneurysm (CIAA) requires salvage of at least one internal iliac artery to prevent complications such as ischemic buttock claudication. We treated a case of bilateral CIAAs using an internal iliac branched stent graft. We report a case of a 58-year-old man who presented with bilateral CIAAs. The left internal iliac artery was occlu...

Common iliac artery aneurysm (CIA) often occurs in conjunction with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), which extends into one or both CIAs in 20% to 30% of patients. Conventional endovascular treatment includes coil embolization of the internal iliac artery (IIA), followed by extension of the main bifurcated AAA stent-graft into the external iliac artery. However, complications from intentiona...

PURPOSE To describe four patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm and bilateral common iliac artery aneurysms repaired by coil embolization of the ipsilateral internal iliac artery, aortouniiliac endograft extended to the ipsilateral external iliac artery, femorofemoral bypass grafting, and a contralateral external iliac to internal iliac stent graft to preserve pelvic perfusion. METHODS Four ...

Isolated bilateral internal iliac artery (IIA) aneurysm is a rare and potentially lethal disease. Endovascular repair of this disorder is a matter of debate. A symptomatic 68-year-old male presented with severe pelvic pains. Computed tomography revealed a leaking 46-mm aneurysm in the right IIA, a 27-mm aneurysm in the left IIA, and ectatic changes at a diameter of 31 mm in the right common ili...

Ruptured internal iliac artery aneurysms (IIAA) are extremely rare, and the repair can be challenging. This case reports described an 83-year-old patient who presented at our Emergency Department with acute abdominal pain based on a ruptured IIAA. He refused open repair and only wanted to be treated as minimally invasive as possible. Therefore endovascular embolization of the IIAA was performed...
