Steerable sheath for exclusively femoral bilateral extension of previous fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair with iliac branch devices

Abstract
We report the treatment of type Ib endoleak after fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair (FEVAR) with iliac branch device (IBD) to allow exclusive transfemoral access without a femoral-to-femoral through-and-through wire. The patient was treated with fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair and showed expansion of the aneurysm owing to a type Ib endoleak. An IBD was implanted by the use of a contralateral steerable sheath for internal iliac artery catheterizing. A computed tomography scan showed the patency of the target vessels and resolution of the endoleak. The use of a steerable sheath without femoral-to-femoral through-and-through wire to bridge the internal iliac artery in patients receiving an IBD after prior EVAR is feasible and... (More)

A computed tomography scan showed the patency of the target vessels and resolution of the endoleak. The use of a steerable sheath without femoral-to-femoral through-and-through wire to bridge the internal iliac artery in patients receiving an IBD after prior EVAR is feasible and avoids the risks associated with upper extremity access.
