Abstract

Objective: Aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes following unilateral iliac revascularization by iliac endarterectomy in patients with TASC C and TASC D Aorto-iliac lesion, with respect to patency and limb salvage. Method Of Study: Prospective study. Results: A total of 26 patients underwent unilateral iliac intervention during the period from August 2016 to January 2017. Mean age at presentation was 68 years(range 45-78). Primary graft patency rate was 92% at end of 1 year. Limb salvaged rate was 100%. No early graft failure was seen. Late graft failure was seen in one patient. Conclusion: Unilateral iliac revascularization is a viable option in patients with TASC C and D Aorto- iliac lesions, not amenable to endovascular therapy and severe comorbidities.
