Abstract
- Successful endovascular aneurysm repair can be achieved with favorable aortic and iliac arterial anatomies. However, patients with challenging iliac anatomy, such as stenotic, calcified, tortuous arteries, or concomitant iliac artery aneurysms, are commonly encountered. Such a hostile iliac anatomy increases the risk of intraprocedural complications and worsens long-term outcomes. This review addresses various technical options for treating patients with a hostile iliac anatomy, including innovative endovascular solutions, physician-modified endografts, and hybrid procedures. These considerations demonstrate the wide scope of therapies that may be offered to patients with an unfavorable iliac anatomy.
