Aortoiliac occlusive disease
OTHERThis study will be carried out on patients with extensive Aortoiliac occlusive disease using the CERAB technique.
Interventions
* The occlusive lesion is then passed, either subintimal or endoluminal, using crossing wires and catheters. * After gaining re-entry into the lumen of the aorta, angiography will be confirmed proper positioning for those with a subintimal passage. * A 10-12 mm V12 LD balloon expandable ePTFE covered stent (Atrium Medical, Maquet Getinge Group, Hudson, NH) will be expanded in the distal aorta approximately 20 mm above the bifurcation through the 9 Fr sheath. * The proximal 2/3 part of the aortic stent will be flared with a larger balloon, usually 16 mm, thereby creating a funnel shaped covered stent. Subsequently, two 8 mm V12 balloon expandable ePTFE covered stents (Atrium Medical, Maquet Getinge Group, Hudson, NH) will be placed proximally in the distal 1/3 of the aortic stent, and then simultaneously deployed distally into the common iliac arteries creating a tight connection with the first aortic stent, thereby creating the new aortic bifurcation.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age: 18 years and older patients.
- Patient presented with disabling claudication pain.
- Patient presented with rest pain.
- Patient presented with gangrene or atrophic changes.
- Provided written informed consent.
- Eligible anatomy for CERAB technique.
- TASC- (II) classification as assigned in the study protocol (specified type B, C and D lesions).
You may not qualify if:
- Age less than 18 years old.
- Patients with acute limb ischemia.
- Patients treated with open surgery and other endovascular techniques such as kissing stenting.
- CERAB configuration extending into aneurysmatic infrarenal aorta.
- Patient's life expectancy \<2 years as judged by the investigator.
- Patient has a psychiatric or other condition that may interfere with the study.
- Patient has a known allergy to any device component.
- Patients with a systemic infection who may be at increased risk of endovascular graft infection.
- Patient has a coagulopathy or uncontrolled bleeding disorder.
- Patient had a recent cerebrovascular accident (CVA) or a myocardial infarction (MI) within the prior three months.
- Patient is pregnant (Female patients of childbearing potential only).
