Brief Summary
Shockwave TEVAR is a nonrandomized, prospective, international, multi-center, PMCF, obervational study. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of the Shockwave™ Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy Balloon (Shockwave Medical Inc.) in the routine treatment of hostile iliac accesses during TEVAR and F/BEVAR.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Efficacy: Technical success - defined as intention-to-treat basis
* Successful dilatation of the access vessels to 8mm without rupture * Successful endovascular access and deployment of all aortic devices * Performance of the Shockwave™ IVL: Includes the definition for technical success as well as delivery of the intended main endograft without the need for surgical conversion, arterial rupture and iliac artery occlusion
30 days
Study Arms (1)
complex endovascular thoracic aortic repair
Patients submitted to complex endovascular thoracic aortic repair with hostile iliac access vessels using the Shockwave device to gain access.
Interventions
Cracking-not-debulking technique (SHOCKWAVE IVL)
Eligibility Criteria
Patient (m/f) age ≥ 18 years
You may qualify if:
- Patient (m/f) age ≥ 18 years at time of enrollment.
- Diagnosis of thoracic and/or thoraco-abdominal (Extent I-V) and juxta/para-renal/short-neck aneurysm requiring the implantation of a thoracic and/or thoraco-abdominal fenestrated/branched aortic endograft with delivery system introducer sheath diameter equal or larger than 18 Fr (6 mm).
- Hostile iliac access was defined in the presence of:
- Heavily circumferential calcified iliac arteries
- Inner diameter ≤ 6 mm
- Severe stenosis (\> 50%; \> 2.5 m/s peak velocity; absence of triphasic duplex signal in ipsilateral common femoral artery)
- We will accept the following presentations of aneurysm:
- urgent cases,
- elective,
- symptomatic
- and fast growing.
- The repair was performed using Shockwave™ before the introduction of the main endograft. The iliac procedures can be accompanied by angioplasty and/or stent and stent-graft positioning.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients submitted to surgical conduit bypass.
- Not-severely calcified disease (absence of calcification).
- In-stent restenosis/occlusion.
- Inability to cross with 0.014 guidewire.
- Any significant medical condition which, in the investigator's opinion, may interfere with the subject's optimal participation in the study.
- Pre-stented iliac access vessels at the level of Shockwave implementation.
