J Radiol

Service de Radiologie Générale, Hôpital Timone, 264 rue Saint Pierre, 13385 Marseille Cedex 05, France.

Published: January 2005

The authors report the clinical and imaging features of a patient with rupture of an aortoiliac graft successfully treated by endovascular approach. The endovascular treatment is easy to perform and effective. The main pitfall of this technique is the limited availability of stent-grafts.

Introduction: Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital narrowing of the thoracic aorta associated with hypertension and significant pressure gradients across the coarctation site. Coarctoplasty by percutaneous approach is the preferred method of treatment. However, complications like stent dislodgement may result and must be immediately managed to prevent adverse outcomes.

Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, 2-16-1 Sugao, Miyamae-ku, Kawasaki, Kanagawa 216-8511, Japan.

With advancements in medical devices and imaging techniques, endovascular treatment using stent grafts has emerged as a viable and aggressive therapeutic option for traumatic subclavian artery injuries, including iatrogenic cases. Existing literature suggests that endovascular treatment is less invasive and offers hemostatic success rates comparable to traditional surgical methods. However, there is a paucity of case reports, necessitating further investigation into treatment indications and procedural challenges.

Endoanchors for the distal fixation of iliac limb in endovascular aneurysm repair.

J Vasc Surg Cases Innov Tech

April 2025

Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Department of Cardiac, Thoracic, Vascular Sciences and Public Health, University of Padua, Padua, Italy.

This report details the case of an 84-year-old male with an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm and a dilated right common iliac artery eligible for endovascular treatment. A bifurcated stent graft (Medtronic Endurant IIs) was used to treat the aneurysm. To address the concerns of instability of the right iliac limb, four endoanchors (Heli-FX EndoAnchor, Medtronic) were placed at the distal landing zone to provide additional fixation.
