Endovascular treatment of iliac limb occlusion of a bifurcated abdominal aortic stent graft: rotational and aspiration thrombectomy followed by primary angioplasty and stenting

Iliac limb occlusion of bifurcated aortic stent graft appears as complication of endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm and several therapeutic approaches have been used to treat this problem in cases of lower limb ischemia. In two cases a totally endovascular approach was used to treat the limb occlusion by means of rotational and aspiration thrombectomy, followed by stenting. In both cases there were no postoperative complications.
