Background: Peripheral arterial disease is a common disease all over the world. Medical treatment, percutaneous invasive treatment, and operation are the considerable options. Percutaneous treatment is a valid option with a higher patency rate. Systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) is a formula which is calculated as neutrophil count to platelet count divided into lymphocyte count. This formula demonstrates the active inflammatory state. In our study, we aimed to demonstrate the relationship with SII and the mortality, major cardiovascular events, and success rates of percutaneous treatment of iliac artery disease.
Methods: A total of 600 patients underwent percutaneous intervention due to iliac artery disease were enrolled. The primary end point was mortality and the secondary end points were in-hospital thrombosis, restenosis, residual stenosis, and postintervention complications. The best cut-off value of SII to predict mortality was determined and the patients were divided into 2 groups, as those with higher SII values (1,073.782 <) and as those with lower SII values (1,073.782 >). Each group was evaluated in terms of clinical, laboratory, and technical aspects.
Results: After exclusion criteria were applied, 417 patients were enrolled into the study. Patients with high SII values had higher rates of in-hospital thrombosis [0 (0%); 3 (2.2%), P = 0.037] and mortality [38 (13.7%); 46 (33.1%), P < 0.001]. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, chronic kidney disease [odds ratio: 4.104, 95 0.5 confidence interval: 2.250-7.487, P < 0.001] and SII [odds ratio: 3.346, 95 0.5 confidence interval: 1.982-5.649, P < 0.001] were found to be independent risk factors for mortality.
Conclusions: SII is a relatively new, simple, and effective mortality risk predictor in patients with iliac artery disease who underwent percutaneous intervention. To the best of our knowledge, our study is the first study which uses SII to predict mortality in such patient group.

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.

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.
Case Description: A 66-year-old female presented to our hospital six hours after an electric tricycle accident with dizziness, fatigue, hypotension (80/50 mmHg), and tachycardia (105 beats/min).

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.
