  • Title: Covered stent in the superior gluteal artery in a hybrid approach to treat internal iliac artery aneurysm: a technical note.
    Author: Noël-Lamy M, Teng Tan K, Lindsay T.
    Journal: J Vasc Interv Radiol; 2015 Jul; 26(7):1040-5. PubMed ID: 26095271.
    Abstract:
    This brief report describes a hybrid endovascular and open procedure to treat internal iliac artery (IIA) aneurysms and preserve pelvic blood flow. A covered stent was deployed before surgery in the superior gluteal artery, extending across the IIA aneurysm, with the proximal end in the common iliac artery lumen. During open aortoiliac aneurysm repair, the stent graft was anastomosed in an end-to-side manner to the surgical graft. Four aneurysms were treated in 3 patients. Technical success was achieved in all cases. There were no complications or repeat interventions. Stents were all patent at imaging follow-up (range, 6-25 mo). Patients were free from buttock claudication.
