Original Title:
Ενδαγγειακή αποκατάσταση μεμονωμένων ανευρυσμάτων έσω λαγονίων αρτηριών
Translated title:
Endovascular repair isolated aneurysm internal iliac arteries
Summary:
Aim: To conduct a literature review of the patients with isolated
internal iliac artery aneurysm in order to investigate the efficacy
of the endovascular techniques.
Methods: Medical databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were
searched to identify eligible studies referring to the isolated
internal iliac artery aneurysm.
Results: 11 patients (15 isolated internal iliac artery aneurysm)
were included in the study. Age ranged from 36 to 84 years old.
The 4 lesions were related to the both internal iliac arteries, 4
were for the right and 3 for the left internal iliac artery.
Endovascular treatment was offered using an IBE endograft,
stent endoprosthesis, coils, plug, microspheres.
Conclusions: Endovascular surgery may be the first method of
treatment for the treatment of isolated internal iliac artery
aneurysm as it is associated with high rates of technical success
and low rates of re-operation, where they were also treated
endovascular. A larger number of patients is required to
produce safer conclusions.
