TODO - Endovascular treatment of internal iliac artery (IIA) aneurysms is an
attractive alternative to surgical management, because the former is
associated with less morbidity and mortality. Embolization with coils or
exclusion of the IIA orifice with stent-grafts are the preferred
techniques. Although uncommon, technical failures occur with reported
aneurysm rupture. Two patients with IIA aneurysms are reported here,
where we describe successful occlusion of their IIA aneurysms with the
use of fibrin sealant, after initial failure of coil embolization.
