Abstract:
:Aortoiliac occlusive disease is a significant cause of lower extremity ischemic symptoms. Over the past two decades, most patients have been treated with a variety of surgical procedures, including aortofemoral and extra-anatomic bypasses. Most recently, percutaneous balloon angioplasty and stents have been successfully used for the treatment of limited iliac lesions. New endovascular grafts that combine vascular grafts with stents in a device with new characteristics may allow the successful treatment of patients with extensive aortoiliac occlusive disease in a less invasive fashion. In our early experience, the endovascular grafts were constructed with Palmaz balloon-expandable stents and standard polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts. The 18-month primary and secondary patency rates were 89% and 100%, respectively, with a limb salvage rate of 94%. Endovascular grafts can be successfully used to treat patients with extensive aortoiliac occlusive disease, with excellent early results. Long-term results and further graft improvements will define their role in the treatment of patients with aortoiliac occlusive disease.
