Endovascular approach to treating common iliac artery aneurysm with contralateral aorto-uni-iliac endograft and a femoral-femoral bypass.
Iliac artery aneurysms (IAA) are often found coexisting with abdominal aortic aneurysms. There is significant risk of associated morbidity and mortality when not treated appropriately. In these two case reports, the authors describe a minimally invasive endovascular approach to treat IAA by placing an aorto-uni-iliac endograft through the contralateral side of the common iliac aneurysm.
