    1 month

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Secondary patency

    12 months

  • Freedom from target lesion revascularization (TLR)

    12 months

  • Clinical improvement

    12 months

  • Re-stenosis

    12 months

  • Limb salvage rate

    12 months

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Aortoiliac occlusive disease

OTHER

This study will be carried out on patients with extensive Aortoiliac occlusive disease using the CERAB technique.

Procedure: Covered Endovacular Reconstruction of Aortic Bifurcation

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.
