Key result
Preoperative internal iliac artery coil embolization reviews techniques and outcomes for aneurysmal disease.
Why the study?
Endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms involving the iliac artery requires internal iliac artery occlusion to prevent type II endoleak, but indications, techniques, and outcomes of coil embolization need review.
What are the indications, techniques, and outcomes of preoperative internal iliac artery coil embolization for aneurysms involving the iliac bifurcation?
What are the indications, techniques, and outcomes of preoperative internal iliac artery coil embolization for aneurysms involving the iliac bifurcation?
This review summarizes the indications, techniques, and outcomes of internal iliac artery coil embolization to prevent type II endoleaks during endovascular repair of aortoiliac aneurysms.
Supports selective IIA embolization in EVAR with iliac extension to avert type II endoleak; leaves open optimal technique and durability.
Endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms involving the iliac artery, which is seen in about 20% of patients, requires extension of the stent-graft limb into the external iliac artery. Occlusion of the IIA is used to prevent a potential type II endoleak via retrograde flow in the IIA after covering the IIA origin with a stent-graft limb. In this article, the major indications for coil-embolization of the internal iliac artery in aneurysmal disease are reviewed and discussed, as well as the technique and the outcome regarding endoleak incidence and complications.

Sam Heye (2006) conducted a review in Abdominal aortic aneurysms involving the iliac artery. Preoperative internal iliac artery coil embolization was evaluated on Endoleak incidence and complications. This review discusses preoperative internal iliac artery coil embolization for aneurysmal disease, focusing on indications, techniques, and outcomes such as endoleak incidence and complications.
