AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Endovascular techniques, including branched devices to preserve the internal iliac artery are evolving rapidly, but in cases in which the diameter of the proximal sealing zone is larger than that of the distal sealing zone, a reversed tapered device is needed. We describe the off label use of the Gore Excluder contralateral leg endoprosthesis in an upside down configuration to accommodate this diameter mismatch. The preinsertion technical steps of stent graft preparation, which do not require extracorporeal predeployment, are described in detail. As such, an aneurysm of the internal iliac artery and a saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm were successfully excluded.

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.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the completion of gate cannulation task performed by participants of varying experience using fluoroscopy, the Intraoperative Positioning System (IOPS)-a United States Food and Drug Administration-cleared endovascular navigation system that has been developed to reduce dependence on fluoroscopy-or an investigational augmented reality electromagnetic navigation technology based on IOPS.
Methods: The task consisted in the cannulation of the gate of a GORE Excluder AAA endoprosthesis bifurcated aortic stent graft (W.L.

Endovascular aneurysm repair for abdominal aortic aneurysms with a severely angulated proximal neck remains challenging because of the higher rates of type 1a endoleaks and secondary interventions. In this study, we reviewed six consecutive patients with a severely angulated proximal neck (>60°) treated with endovascular aneurysm repair at a single center. They were treated with a Gore Excluder Conformable endograft using a pre-constrain technique to prevent type 1a endoleaks.
