Remote iliac artery endarterectomy: seven-year results of a less invasive technique for iliac artery occlusive disease

Abstract: Remote endarterectomy in external and common iliac arterial occlusive disease is a feasible endovascular procedure with a low complication rate. The midterm primary-assisted patency rate is good.

“…In a study by Smeets et al, with 49 remote iliac artery endarterectomies being performed in 48 patients, the indications for surgery were claudication in 28 patients (57 %), rest pain in 13 patients (27 %) and gangrene in 8 patients (16 %) [5]. In our study, a large number of patients presented with advance stages of the disease like gangrene and tissue loss (85 %).…”

“…They show the 2-year primary, primary assisted and secondary patency of 73 %, 86 % and 86 %, respectively [8,9]. Smeets et al have shown a 3-year cumulative primary patency rate of 60.2 %±12 % with secondary patency rates of 94.2 %±5.5 % [5]. Another study by Rosenthal et al also shows higher cumulative patency rates of 93.2 % at 3 months and 74.9 % at 1 year [10].…”

“…19 The ring strip cutter (MollRing Cutter, Vascular Architects Inc, San Jose, Calif) and Vollmar ring stripper enable retrograde endarterectomy of iliofemoral occlusions under local anesthesia. 20 They avoid prosthetic material, anastomotic complications, and extraperitoneal dissection. They are less suitable for aortic and CIA disease and were thought to be inadequate in our patient population.…”

“…1,2 When PTA is not acceptable for iliac lesions, conventional surgery is the most appropriate procedure to employ. 10,11 In the case presented here, the primary reason for choosing the surgical approach was the extent of occlusive disease, which had compromised the entire iliofemoral transition. The choice to use a surgical access for the proximal anastomosis, using the left external iliac artery as the donor artery, was because our service has higher infection rates when the groin is used, possibly related to the number of comorbidities and low socioeconomic status of our patients.…”
