Since cone-beam computed tomography (CT) has been adapted for use with a C-arm system it has brought volumetric CT capabilities in the interventional suite. Although cone-beam CT image resolution is far inferior to that generated by traditional CT scanners, the system offers the ability to place an access needle into position under tomographic guidance and use the access to immediately begin a ...

A 78-year-old male with a history of a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm, repaired emergently with a tube Dacron graft, presented with bilateral common iliac aneurysms, 3.4 cm left and 2.9 cm right, and a 5-cm aortic bifurcation that extended to the iliac bifurcations. The patient underwent a diagnostic arteriogram (A) and selective embolization of the right internal iliac artery (IIA). He sub...

Visible haematuria from an uretero-iliac artery aneurysm fistula (UIAF) offers a diagnostic challenge and early accurate diagnosis can have a significant impact on prognosis. We report a 90 year old gentleman who presented with visible haematuria and clot retention. He required catheterisation, bladder washout and a blood transfusion. Subsequent imaging revealed an abdominal aortic aneurysm and...

Objective. Bilateral internal iliac artery aneurysms constitute the utmost configuration of infrarenal aortoiliac disease. We detail characteristic aortoiliac disease patterns and reconstructive techniques we have used, along with a visualized decision-making chart and a short review of the literature. Material and Methods. A retrospective, observational study of twelve clinical cases of patien...

For high-risk patients, endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a good option but may lead to serious complications, which should be addressed immediately. A 75-year-old man with a history of abdominal surgery underwent EVAR for an aneurysm of the abdominal aorta and iliac arteries. During EVAR, iliac artery rupture and graft limb occlusion occurred, and they were successfully managed by ...
