Recanalization of an occluded iliac artery represents a technically challenging endovascular technique. Prior to attempting recanalization, the operator must have an approach in mind and understand the risks and complications associated with this endeavor. In this article, the authors provide 2 cases and review the techniques and complications associated with iliac artery recanalization.

Anatomy of Risk: Decoding the Predictors of Vascular Access Complications in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.
Catheter Cardiovasc Interv
December 2024
Department of Surgery, University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences, Grand Forks, North Dakota, United States.
Background: Despite advancements in valve implantation devices, vascular access complications (VAC) remain a significant cause of morbidity and mortality for those undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). We describe pre-operative imaging analysis of the aortoiliac and femoral arterial beds using the TransAtlantic intersociety consensus (TASC) score, ilio-femoral tortuosity, and procedural characteristics to identify anatomic risk factors predictive of VAC in TAVR.
Methods: Consecutive patients undergoing TAVR from 2012 to 2022 at a single North Dakota hospital were retrospectively reviewed.
Successful treatment of cardiac dysfunction due to left main trunk obstruction and severe acute aortic regurgitation secondary to acute type A aortic dissection using Impella: a case report.
J Cardiothorac Surg
December 2024
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Kanazawa University, Takaramachi 13-1, Kanazawa, 920-8641, Japan.
Background: Acute type A aortic dissection (A-AAD) with severe acute aortic regurgitation (AR) and coronary involvement is a potentially fatal condition that causes left ventricular volume overload and catastrophic acute myocardial infarction. We present the successful management of a patient using Impella 5.5 following cardiopulmonary arrest caused by A-AAD with severe acute AR and left main trunk (LMT) obstruction.

Both veins experienced significant compression - OLCIV proximally and ILCIV medially - due to the overlying right common iliac artery (RCIA) and lumbar spine. The patient presented with bilateral spider veins, lower extremity swelling, pelvic discomfort, and bilateral leg cramping.

Introduction: Retroperitoneal hematoma with ongoing hemorrhage is a rare but critical condition following blunt abdominal trauma, requiring urgent evaluation and management. This case details a large retroperitoneal hematoma in the right iliac fossa caused by a rupture of the deep circumflex iliac artery (DCIA), successfully treated with transcatheter arterial embolization.

Isolated iliac aneurysms are rare, and their management becomes complex when accompanied by ectopic pelvic kidneys due to altered vascular anatomy. We report a 58-year-old male with an incidentally discovered 53.5 mm left common iliac artery (CIA) aneurysm and an ectopic pelvic kidney.
