Hypogastric artery aneurysms (HAA) necessitate repair due to significant morbidity and potential mortality associated with rupture. Coverage or coiling of HAA are not always possible, as the risk of pelvic and spinal cord ischemia become especially significant in bilateral hypogastric disease as well as with prior extensive aortic coverage. We report 2 cases of endovascular HAA exclusion using parallel stent grafts for preservation of flow through the distal hypogastric artery branches and external iliac artery in patients with prior thoracic and abdominal aortic repairs, contralateral hypogastric disease, and significant anatomic constraints.

Background: Diminished pelvic arterial flow as a result of intentional coverage/embolization of internal iliac arteries (IIA) during isolated endovascular common iliac artery aneurysm (CIAA) repair or endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (EVAR) may result in symptomatic pelvic ischemia. Although generally well tolerated, in severe cases, pelvic ischemia may manifest as recalcitrant buttock claudication, vasculogenic impotence, or perineal, vesicle, rectal, and/or spinal cord ischemia. Branched graft technology has recently become available; however, many patients are not candidates for endovascular repair with these devices.

Background: To report a technique of keeping unilateral blood flow in the internal iliac artery in cases of an abdominal aortic aneurysm in achieving successful Endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair using an external-to-internal artery bypass.
Case Presentation: 6 japanese patients with infra-renal abdominal aortic aneurysms were treated using the retroperitoneal approach via a left (right) paramedian incision followed by an external-to-internal artery bypass. Endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair was conducted on mean postoperative day 29 ± 18 and was performed because the contralateral internal iliac artery, which was not involved in the external-to-internal artery bypass, was treated with a coil embolization.

An 81-year-old man presented with rapid enlargement of a 2-year known abdominal aortic and common iliac aneurysms. A hybrid approach to preserve both hypogastric arteries (HAs) was planned: a bifurcated endograft for the right aortoiliac axis, right femoral-to-left femoral artery bypass, and left external-to-internal iliac artery stent graft placement. Urethral stenosis requiring an epicystostomy rendered this approach not feasible.

During the endovascular repair of aortoiliac aneurysm, bilateral internal iliac artery (IIA) occlusion may give rise to significant morbidities such as ischemia of buttock or sigmoid colon and erectile dysfunction. Open and endovascular approaches are used to maintain IIA circulation in such cases. The present report describes the cases of two patients who underwent external-to-internal iliac artery bypass surgery, one via a novel hybrid approach.
