Common iliac artery aneurysm: Expansion rate and results of open surgical and endovascular repair

Interventions. A, Open repair with bifurcated or straight polyester graft in 380 patients. B, Endovascular repair with bifurcated or straight stent grafts in 41 patients.

Kaplan-Meier analysis shows survival of 438 patients after open (OR) and endovascular (EVAR) repair of common iliac artery aneurysms. The dotted line indicates standard error >10%.

Drawing shows open repair of an ilioiliac arteriovenous fistula. A, Digital compression of the fistula controls venous bleeding. B, Placement of a venous thrombectomy catheter and suture closure of the fistula before graft repair.

Primary graft patency of 627 open emergency and elective common iliac artery aneurysm repairs. The dotted line indicates standard error >10%.

Primary patency of 691 common iliac artery aneurysm repairs CIAA repairs by open (OR) vs endovascular (EVAR) techniques. The standard error <10% for all data points.

Freedom from reinterventions for patients undergoing open (OR) and endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Standard error <10% for all data points.
