AI Article Synopsis

  • Iliac artery aneurysms are usually found alongside other aortic diseases, making isolated cases uncommon.
  • Isolated external iliac artery aneurysms are particularly rare compared to other iliac aneurysms.
  • The case discussed involves a middle-aged man with an asymptomatic isolated external iliac artery aneurysm, successfully treated using a stent graft.

Article Abstract

Iliac artery aneurysms commonly present in patients with associated aortic disease. Isolated aneurysms of the iliac arteries are uncommon, mostly involving the common iliac artery. Isolated external iliac artery aneurysms are the rarest iliac aneurysmal pathology. We present the case of an asymptomatic isolated external iliac artery aneurysm with no other concomitant vascular disease in a middle-aged man, treated with a stent graft.

Background: Vascular calcification is highly prevalent and associated with mortality in hemodialysis patients. However, extreme splanchnic arterial calcification in calciphylaxis with poor prognosis raises questions regarding the reliability of previous vascular calcification scoring methods. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the distribution characteristics of abdominal aortic branch calcification and identify a more reliable predictor of mortality in hemodialysis patients.

This case report evaluates current diagnostic and treatment approaches for intrapelvic acetabular migration, focusing on the rare but serious complication of acute limb ischemia following hip arthroplasty. A 67-year-old female with a history of total hip arthroplasty 10 years ago presented with acute limb ischemia after experiencing a traumatic event 72 hours prior, which had caused displacement of her hip prosthesis. Notably, she had a history of a traumatic event two years earlier for which she had been advised to undergo surgical correction, which she had refused.

As a blood flow control technique for embolization using glue (n-butyl cyanoacrylate; NBCA) for peripheral artery aneurysm/pseudoaneurysm, we placed a vascular plug or coils at the proximal inflow vessel before glue injection. We describe this maneuver, which we call the glue in lockdown technique. Four peripheral aneurysms-two pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysms, one pancreaticoduodenal arcade pseudoaneurysm, and one internal iliac artery aneurysm-deemed unsuitable for conventional embolization because of abnormal blood flow, coagulopathy, or anatomical complexity were embolized with our technique.

Unveiling the uncommon: hypoplasia of external iliac artery-a case report and literature review.

The absence or dysplasia of the iliac artery(IA) is an exceedingly rare condition, with limited cases documented in the literature. In this report, we present a case of hypoplasia of the right external iliac artery (EIA) in a 69-year-old male patient. The patient presented with right lower abdominal pain attributed to an aneurysm of the right internal iliac artery (IIA), yet notably, there was no evidence of lower limb ischemia at the time of consultation.
