    Author: Igari K, Kudo T, Toyofuku T, Jibiki M, Inoue Y.
    Journal: Eur J Vasc Endovasc Surg; 2013 Mar; 45(3):218-9. PubMed ID: 23305792.
    Abstract:
    INTRODUCTION: Due to their anatomic location, internal iliac artery aneurysms are difficult to treat surgically. An endovascular approach can be helpful, even in ruptured cases. REPORT: We report a 71-year-old male with ruptured isolated bilateral internal iliac artery aneurysms. The aneurysms were treated with embolisation of the branching arteries of the bilateral internal iliac arteries followed by placement of a stent graft covering the orifice of the bilateral internal iliac arteries. The patient tolerated this procedure well. DISCUSSION: Even in patients with ruptured aneurysms, endovascular treatment for internal iliac artery aneurysms can be a good treatment option.
