Purpose: One subset of peripheral arterial disease is aortoiliac occlusive diseases (AIOD). AIOD is the term for all arterial lesions between the infrarenal distal aorta and common femoral artery. Implantation of kissing stents (KS) with covered stents (CS), bare-metal stents (BMS) is one of the endovascular treatment (ET) modalities for AIOD involving aortic bifurcation. In this study, we report the outcomes of the KS technique in infrarenal AIOD.
Methods: Between January 2014 and September 2017, 31 patients who underwent ET were treated with KS technique either with balloon-expandable BMS or balloon-expandable CS. Technical details, clinical success, complications, and patency at follow-up were documented.
Results: The majority of patients were male (77.4%), and the median age was 62 years (range, 45?78 years). All patients were classified according to the TASC II criteria. Eight patients (25.8%) were classified as TASC B. Fifteen patients (48.4%) were classified as TASC C, and 8 patients (25.8%) were classified as TASC D. These 23 patients were classified as complex AIOD group. BMS was used in 17 patients (54.8%), and CS was used in 14 patients (45.2%). Technical and clinical success was achieved in 100% of treated cases. The median follow-up was 24 months (range, 24?34 months). Primary patency rates at 12, 18, and 24 months after ET were 100%, 96.8%, and 90.3%, respectively.
Conclusion: We found that the KS technique has satisfying 24-month results, even in complex AIOD lesions, with high technical success and acceptable midterm patency. Key Words: Aorta, Arterial occlusive diseases, Endovascular procedures, Iliac artery, Stents
