ABSTRACT:

Objective

The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of endovascular therapy on the treatment of different types of iliac occlusions.

Materials and methods

A bi-center prospective, non-randomized study was conducted on 100 patients (mean age 59.14 ± 8.53; 64 men) who underwent endovascular treatment of iliac occlusive disease between January 2013 and November 2017. We evaluated baseline data, procedure, and follow-up results for the entire group, and according to Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC II) classification. The majority of patients (60%) were treated for severe claudication; 56 (56%) patients had TASC B occlusions, 28 patients TASC C, and 16 patients TASC D.
