Retrograde iliofemoral endarterectomy facilitated by balloon angioplasty

Abstract: Retrograde iliofemoral endarterectomy facilitated by balloon angioplasty is a safe, easy-to-perform, and viable option for patients with combined external iliac artery and common femoral artery occlusive disease. Midterm results (36.4 months) are favorable, and most hemodynamic failures are easy to correct with standard endovascular techniques.

“…In addition to our previous work, 13 several authors 14,[17][18][19] have published their techniques and early results with a hybrid approach to iliofemoral occlusive disease. To the best of our knowledge, this report comprises the largest series to date describing outcome and long-term patency of this procedure.…”

“…Multilevel revascularization, using a combination of endovascular and open (hybrid) surgeries, was first reported in the early 1990s (4). Hybrid surgery is ideal for multilevel lesions, as it allows for minimally invasive treatment on complex anatomy in medically high-risk patients.…”

“…The disadvantage of this approach in our case would be the need of thoracotomy that would increase the severity of the operation in terms of surgical stress and need for intensive care unit as well as the possibility of major postoperative complications (9–11). The technique of “retrograde iliofemoral endarterectomy facilitated by balloon angioplasty” (12) or “internal endoconduit,” (13) which would have been another options in our case, could not take place since the attempts to place a sheath through the iliac arteries were unsuccessful.…”
