ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The use of iliac branch device (IBD) is increasing due to the less invasive character and accumulated experience of physicians in this endovascular technique. Clinical data regarding the E-liac stent graft from Artivion®, however, are scarce. This study shows the mid-term outcomes of the E-liac stent graft from a large single center.METHODS:
Patients treated with IBD for (aorto-)iliac aneurysms between September 2015 and December 2022 with follow-up in our center were included. (Post)operative (technical success, reintervention, 30-day mortality) and mid-term outcomes (endoleak, reintervention, hypogastric patency, mortality) were analyzed.RESULTS:
63 patients (60 male, median age 70 years (IQR 66-76)) were treated with 82 E-liac stent grafts for aorto-iliac aneurysms with a median follow-up of 38 months (IQR 22-51). The technical success rate was 95%. Ninety-seven point six percent of the interal iliac arteries remained patent during follow-up. No 30-day mortality was encountered. During follow-up one patient had an endoleak type 1b of both hypogastric arteries, however the patient refused additional interventions. One other patient had a type 2 endoleak with contained rupture. Palliative treatment was chosen because of the patient's severe comorbidities. One (1.6%) IBD-related reintervention was performed with relining of the stent graft. Secondary patency of the interal iliac artery was 95.1% and the mortality was 25.4% during follow-up.CONCLUSIONS:
This study shows high technical success rates for the E-liac stent graft, with corresponding good mid-term outcomes. The E-liac stent graft is a feasible, safe and effective stent graft in the treatment of aorto-iliac aneurysms.
