Double-Barrel Technique With Reversed Gore Excluder Stent Graft Limb for Common Iliac Aneurysm Exclusion in a Patient With Prior Aortic Surgical Repair.

Surgical repair of a common iliac artery aneurysm (CIA) after previous open aortic reconstruction is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Endovascular repair is considered less invasive than surgery. However, if preservation of the internal iliac artery (IIA) is required, the applicability of endovascular techniques may represent a challenge and a limitation to the use of standard aortic endografts or iliac branch devices.

Late Non-Anastomotic Rupture of a Bifurcated Dacron Aortic Graft Treated Using a Gore Excluder Limb Endoprosthesis.

Dacron vascular prostheses have been widely used in vascular surgery since the mid-1970s. They have been proven to be the most durable and reliable conduits for arterial replacement in aortic and peripheral surgeries for decades. However, an extremely rare complication, namely late non-anastomotic graft rupture, due to intrinsic structural prosthetic disruption can occur, resulting in acute hemorrhage or false aneurysm formation.
