Hybrid Pelvic Revascularization in Complex Aortoiliac Aneurysm Repair.

ABSTRACT

Revascularization of complex pelvic vascular anatomy presents an ongoing clinical challenge when treating aortoiliac disease. As vascular surgeons continue to intervene upon increasingly complex aortoiliac pathology, the role of pelvic revascularization is important for the preservation of pelvic organ function and prevention of devastating spinal cord ischemia. In this study we describe the indications, techniques, and clinical outcomes of a novel hybrid pelvic revascularization repair that focuses on optimizing revascularization while limiting pelvic surgical dissection during the management of complex aortic pathology in patients physiologically or anatomically unsuitable for traditional pelvic revascularization techniques.
