Abstract
The objective of these Guidelines is to provide recommendations for the classification, indication, treatment and management of patients suffering from aneurysmal pathology of the visceral and renal arteries. The methodology applied was the GRADE-SIGN version, and followed the instructions of the AGREE quality of reporting checklist. Clinical questions, structured according to the PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparator, Outcome) model, were formulated, and systematic literature reviews were carried out according to them. Selected articles were evaluated through specific methodological checklists. Considered Judgments were compiled for each clinical question in which the characteristics of the body of available evidence were evaluated in order to establish recommendations. Overall, 79 clinical practice recommendations were proposed. Indications for treatment and therapeutic options were discussed for each arterial district, as well as follow-up and medical management, in both candidate patients for conservative therapy and patients who underwent treatment. The recommendations provided by these guidelines simplify and improve decision-making processes and diagnostic-therapeutic pathways of patients with visceral and renal arteries aneurysms. Their widespread use is recommended.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isolated iliac artery aneurysms are less frequent than abdominal aortic aneurysms, with the same, predominantly atherosclerotic-degenerative etiology, but patients present more frequently with symptoms or at the stage of rupture. The majority of those affected are men over the age of 65. The ideal imaging technique for diagnosis, treatment planning and follow-up is computed tomography (CT) angiography. Below a diameter of 4 cm, the risk of rupture is 6.3%, and then increases significantly with increasing diameter. Today, treatment is recommended from a size of 3.5 cm at the earliest. THERAPY Because of the lower mortality, endovascular therapy is the leading treatment for the elective and emergency situation. The quality of the landing zones, which are important for sealing, is decisive for elimination of the aneurysm. The elimination is carried out by means of stent grafts, often in combination with embolization. Due to the risk of buttock claudication and erectile dysfunction, the preservation of ipsilateral pelvic perfusion is recommended in cases of insufficient collateralization. Special iliac branch devices or various parallel endograft techniques are available for this purpose. FOLLOW-UP The main problem of endovascular treatment are endoleaks and the associated need for reintervention. Imaging control by means of CT angiography is crucial for timely endoleak detection, especially in the early phase.

Abstract
Isolated iliac artery aneurysms are rare and very rarely it may lead to hydronephrosis. The majority of uncomplicated iliac artery aneurysms can be managed with endovascular interventions but large complicated iliac artery aneurysms with compression on adjacent structures may require open surgery. We share our experience of a case of a large isolated iliac artery aneurysm with compression of the ureter probably leading to ureteric calculi and hydronephrosis on the ipsilateral side. The patient was managed with aneurysm resection and extra-anatomic bypass.

Abstract
A 34-year-old man presented with painful swelling in the right gluteal region. The MRI showed right sacroiliitis and adjacent intramuscular abscess. The abscess was drained by a pigtail insertion followed by incision and drainage. The patient developed persistent bleeding from the drainage site. CT angiogram revealed a large pear-shaped pseudoaneurysm arising from the anterior branch of the right internal iliac artery. The patient had Abrus precatorius poisoning previously resulting in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus septicaemia, which incited above events. Digital subtraction angiography with coil embolisation of the right internal iliac artery was done under the cover of culture-specific antibiotics along with thorough wound debridement following which the patient's condition improved. Isolated infected pseudoaneurysms of internal iliac arteries, although rare, should be considered in cases of complicated sacroiliitis. Under antibiotic cover, endovascular coil embolisation can be considered as a treatment strategy to treat complicated infected pseudoaneurysms located in difficult anatomical locations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this paper is to report the different modalities for the treatment of isolated internal iliac artery aneurysms (IIIAA), as well as their outcomes. METHODS We performed a systematic review of the literature (database searched: PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library; last search: April 2020). We included articles reporting on the outcomes for IIIAA interventions comprising at least 5 patients. Studies were included when presenting extractable outcome data regarding intraoperative and/or early results. We performed meta-analyses of proportions for different outcomes, using random effects model. RESULTS Thirteen non-randomized studies were included (192 patients with 202 IIIAA). IIIAA were symptomatic in the 18.1% (95%CI 9.3-26.9; I2 54.46%, P = .019). Estimated mean IIIAA diameter was 46.28 mm (95%CI 39.72-52.85; I2 88.85%, P < .001). Open repair was performed in 21/202 cases. Endovascular treatments were: embolization (81/181), embolization and hypogastric artery coverage (79/181), hypogastric artery coverage by stent-grafting (15/181), stent-grafting in the hypogastric artery (6/181). Overall estimated technical success (TS) rate was 91.6% (95% CI 86.8-95.5; I2 45.82%, P = .031). TS rate was 94.5% for open surgery (95%CI 85.3-100; I2 0%, P = .907), and 89.7% for endovascular repair (95%CI 83.8-95.6; I2 55.43%, P = .006). Estimated overall 30-day mortality was 3.1% (95%CI 0.8-5.4; I2 0%, P = .969). Mortality rates after open surgery and endovascular repair were 8.2% (95%CI 3.4-19.8; I2 0%, P = .545) and 2.8% (95%CI 0.5-5.1; I2 0%, P = .994), respectively. Estimated mean follow-up was 32.63 months (95%CI 21.74-43.53; I2 94.45%, P < .001). During this timeframe, IIIAA exclusion was preserved in 92.8% of the patients (95%CI 89.3-96.2; I2 0%, P = .797). Buttock claudication occurred in 13.9% of the patients (95%CI 8.7-19.2; I2 0%, P = .622). CONCLUSIONS IIIAA are frequently large, and symptomatic at presentation. Several treatments are proposed in literature, open and endovascular, both with good results. The endovascular treatment is the preferred method of treatment in literature, since it offers good short- to mid-term results and low early mortality. Buttock claudication after hypogastric artery exclusion is a common complication.

Outcomes after Standalone Use of Gore Excluder Iliac Branch Endoprosthesis for Endovascular Repair of Isolated Iliac Artery Aneurysms. Ann Vasc Surg 2020; 67:158-170. [PMID: 32234400 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2020.03.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2020] [Revised: 03/07/2020] [Accepted: 03/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of our study was to describe outcomes of stand-alone use (i.e., without concomitant implantation of an aortic stent graft) of the Gore Excluder iliac branch endoprosthesis (IBE) for elective endovascular repair of isolated iliac artery aneurysms. METHODS We evaluated all consecutive patients electively treated for isolated iliac artery aneurysms using standalone Gore Excluder IBE (January 2014-December 2018). Early (i.e., 30-day) endpoints were technical success, mortality, major adverse events (MAEs), and major access-site complications. Late endpoints were survival, freedom from aortic-related mortality (ARM), internal iliac artery (IIA) primary patency, IIA branch instability, graft-related adverse events (GRAEs), secondary interventions, endoleaks (ELs), aneurysm sac behavior, and new-onset buttock claudication (BC). RESULTS A total of 11 consecutive patients (10 men; median age 75 years) were included. The technical success rate was 100%. At 30 days, mortality, MAEs, and major access-site complications were all 0%. Survival and freedom from ARM were 91% and 100%, respectively; only one nonaortic related death was recorded during follow-up. At a median follow-up of 14 months, IIA primary patency, IIA branch instability, and GRAEs were 100%, 0%, and 0%, respectively. No instances of graft migration ≥10 mm were detected. No graft-related secondary interventions were recorded, and 2 patients required a procedure-related secondary intervention 3 months after the index procedure (1 common femoral artery endarterectomy and 1 external iliac artery stenting). Although new-onset type 1 or type 3 ELs were never noted, one patient developed a new-onset type 2 EL. Aneurysm sac regression ≥5 mm was noted in 6 patients (55%), whereas in the remaining ones, the sac size was stable. No instances of new-onset BC were noted. CONCLUSIONS Use of standalone Gore Excluder IBE for elective endovascular repair of isolated iliac artery aneurysms is a safe, feasible, and effective treatment option. These results may support use of the technique as an effective means of endovascular reconstruction in patients with suitable anatomy.

Abstract
Bilateral isolated hypogastric aneurysm (HA) is a rare type of abdominal aneurysm. Endovascular repair has become predominant compared with surgical repair because of its minimal invasiveness. However, type-II endoleak after procedure may lead to continuous enlargement of HA and rupture. Herein, we report a rare case involving a very large HA induced by type-II endoleak after endovascular repair. A 68-year-old male patient underwent endovascular repair of bilateral isolated HAs 4 years ago. Stent grafts were used to block the orifices of bilateral HAs, and main distal outflows were embolized with coils. In the absence of a 4-year follow-up, he returned to the clinic with symptoms of lower abdominal pain and frequent urination. Computer tomography angiography revealed a giant left HA with a maximum diameter of 18 cm combined with the enlargement of the left common iliac artery (CIA) induced by type-II endoleak. The right isolated HA decreased from 5.5 cm to 3 cm. Angiography was performed, and multiple arteries from the middle sacral and external iliac arteries were detected as the sources of type-II endoleak. Considering the compression effect, surgical repair of the left giant HA was performed. Thrombus was removed from the giant aneurysm, and the distal outflows of HA were sutured. As the left CIA was enlarged, a prosthetic graft was interposed through the inner side of the previous cover stent to revascularize the external iliac artery. The patient had an uneventful postoperative clinical course and was discharged from the hospital 7 days after operation. Treatments of HA induced by type-II endoleak require regular patient follow-ups to monitor specific conditions, particularly the embolization of distal outflows. Surgical repair remains the first choice for HA with compression symptoms.

Abstract
Many advantages of endovascular repair for aneurysms have been reported. The compression by aneurysms was not resolved early after endovascular repair. Rectal necrosis caused by residual aneurysms early after endovascular repair is rare. Aneurysm reduction and intestinal resection after embolization was a useful method. Embolization performed earlier assisted surgical decompression of aneurysms.
Introduction Recently, endovascular repair has become the first-line treatment for internal iliac artery aneurysm (IIAA). However, rectal necrosis due to the compression of the residual IIAA early after endovascular repair is rare. Presentation of case We present a rare case of a huge, isolated left IIAA that severely compressed the rectum and ureter. The patient underwent emergency endovascular repair; however, rectal necrosis occurred 10 days later because the repair failed to shrink the size of the aneurismal sac. Discussion We hypothesize that the compression of the residual IIAA caused rectal necrosis. During open surgery, endovascular repair disrupted blood flow within the IIAA, which probably allowed for aneurysm dissection and residual hematoma removal. Conclusion Endovascular repair alone could not immediately release compression on the surrounding organs; however, open surgical removal of aneurysms after successful endovascular repair may be a useful option for IIAAs with compression of surrounding organs.

Abstract
CLINICAL ISSUE Isolated iliac artery aneurysms occur considerably less often than abdominal aortic aneurysms. Mainly older men are affected by this disease. Most of these aneurysms are asymptomatic and are incidentally detected during cross-sectional imaging. Iliac aneurysms with a diameter larger than 3 cm are at risk for rupture, which is associated with high morbidity and mortality. STANDARD TREATMENT To prevent their rupture as well as for symptomatic or ruptured aneurysms, endovascular treatment has recently been established as the primary approach due to the decreased morbidity and mortality compared to open repair. Endovascular aneurysm exclusion is performed with stent grafts, and depending on the anatomy, by adjunctive internal iliac artery embolization. TREATMENT INNOVATIONS Up to a quarter of treated patients will require additional endovascular revisions during the long term. Reliable imaging follow-up likely increases the safety of elective or emergent endovascular iliac artery aneurysm repair.

Abstract
PURPOSE: Outcomes of open iliac artery repair (OIR) and endovascular iliac artery repair (EVIR) were compared at a tertiary referral vascular center. METHODS: From 2004 to 2015, all patients treated for isolated iliac artery aneurysms (IAAs) were retrospectively identified, and patient records and computed tomography (CT) scans were analyzed. The primary end point was overall survival; secondary end points were 30-day mortality and morbidity and freedom from reintervention. For follow-up, data from outpatient visits and CT scans following a standard surveillance protocol were used. RESULTS: A total of 106 IAAs in 94 patients were treated (mean follow-up: 35.7 months; 66 OIR; 40 EVIR). Six (15%) aneurysms from the EVIR group and 4 (6.1%) from open-operated IAA presented in the state of rupture. There was no difference in overall survival between EVIR and OIR ( P = .14). In multivariable analysis, higher risk of death was associated with ruptured IAA (rIAA; hazard ratio [HR]: 40.44, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.05-796.18; P = .02) and coronary heart disease (HR: 11.07, 95% CI: 1.94-63.36; P < .01). The 30-day mortality was 1.9% overall (0% OIR, 5.0% EVIR, P = .27), but there were no differences between OIR and EVIR in 30-day morbidity ( P = .11). Freedom from reintervention was higher for OIR than for EVIR ( P < .01). In multivariable analysis, a higher reintervention rate was seen in EVIR (HR: 10.80, 95% CI: 2.20-53.01; P < .01) and in rIAA (HR: 12.02, 95% CI: 1.31-111.11; P = .03). CONCLUSION: Iliac artery aneurysmss can be safely and effectively treated by EVIR or OIR regarding 30-day morbidity, mortality, and long-term survival, although freedom from reintervention is significantly lower after EVIR.
