Parker et al,1,2 in recent years, investigated the inter-relationships of aortoiliac morphology, hemodynamic changes, and the clinical progression of 25 cases of isolated common iliac artery aneurysms (CIAAs), by reconstructing and simulating the fluid dynamics and the wall shear stress. From their findings, kinked CIAAs had less calcification and thrombosis and appeared hemodynamically stable, rarely rupture. In our study,3 we reported a European two-center experience of 256 implanted iliac branch devices (IBDs) for the endovascular treatment of aortoiliac aneurysms. Therefore, we considered aortoiliac (165 cases) and isolated iliac aneurysms (44 cases, including common, external, or internal iliac aneurysms) suitable for the treatment according to the current guidelines.

Abstract
Parker et al,1,2 in recent years, investigated the inter-relationships of aortoiliac morphology, hemodynamic changes, and the clinical progression of 25 cases of isolated common iliac artery aneurysms (CIAAs), by reconstructing and simulating the fluid dynamics and the wall shear stress. From their findings, kinked CIAAs had less calcification and thrombosis and appeared hemodynamically stable, rarely rupture. In our study,3 we reported a European two-center experience of 256 implanted iliac branch devices (IBDs) for the endovascular treatment of aortoiliac aneurysms. Therefore, we considered aortoiliac (165 cases) and isolated iliac aneurysms (44 cases, including common, external, or internal iliac aneurysms) suitable for the treatment according to the current guidelines.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
