Iliac branch endoprosthesis for repair of a common iliac artery aneurysm in Loeys-Dietz syndrome type 3.

The commercial availability of the iliac branch endoprosthesis (IBE) has permitted endovascular repair of iliac artery aneurysms with the preservation of pelvic circulation. However, the device instructions for use require certain anatomic criteria that can limit deployment in ≤30% of patients. Moreover, branched endovascular treatment of common iliac artery aneurysms with IBE in patients with connective tissue disorders such as Loeys-Dietz syndrome has not been described. In the present report, we have described our technique of alternative endograft aortoiliac reconstruction to overcome anatomic barriers to IBE placement in a patient with a giant common iliac artery aneurysm in the setting of a rare pathogenic variant in the gene.
