The term neoaortoiliac system (NAIS) was coined by Clagett in 1993 to describe the use of the deep veins in the thigh to replace the aorta and iliac arteries in the setting of graft infection. Since that time, the NAIS procedure has been used to treat a wide array of both infectious and noninfectious conditions affecting the aortoiliac segment. In this article, we present a 10-step description of the NAIS procedure to treat an aortoduodenal fistula in a patient with an infected endovascular aneurysm repair.

Introduction: Melioidosis is caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei and primarily affects non-vascular organ systems. We present a case of a melioidotic penetrating aortic ulcer (PAU) with unusual clinical features of vascular infection. The patient was successfully treated with a single-stage neoaortoiliac system procedure, highlighting the challenges in managing melioidotic aortic infections.

Objectives: Aortic graft infection (AGI) is a life-threatening complication that can result in death, amputation, sepsis, aorto-enteric fistula, and pseudoaneurysm formation. After explantation of the infected graft, options for reconstruction include extra-anatomic bypass or in-line reconstruction using antibiotic-coated prosthetic graft, cryopreserved allograft, or a neo-aortoiliac system (NAIS) using autogenous femoral veins. While the NAIS procedure has shown promising results, there is relatively limited clinical experience due the magnitude and morbidity of the surgery.

Objective: To report and compare neoaortoiliac system reconstruction and cryopreserved human allograft in treating aortic graft infections.
Methods: We retrospectively analysed the data of the patients treated for aorto graft infections between January 2015 and May 2021 in our hospital. The clinical data, diagnostic procedures, and surgical options were evaluated.
