OBJECTIVE To determine the midterm outcomes of internal iliac artery (IIA) coverage by a stent-graft in endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) under specific anatomic and technical circumstances. METHODS From January 2003 until January 2014, 57 patients with aortoiliac aneurysms, including 20 with 24 IIA aneurysms (IIAAs), underwent EVAR with IIA coverage. IIAA diameter change or IIA thrombosis, buttock claudication, type II endoleak, and secondary interventions related to the IIA were studied. RESULTS Twenty-five of the 37 patients without IIAA were embolized prior to stent-graft placement, all unilateral, and in 12, the IAA orifice was only overstented. Buttock claudication occurred in only nine (20%) of the embolization patients (9/49 IIA's) (p = .14), while one IIA-related type II endoleak, occurred in the nonembolization group (p = .16). In patients with IIAA(s), the aneurysm diameter decreased in 16 cases (67%). Buttock claudication occurred in 75% of bilateral, and in 14.6% of unilateral embolizations (p = .046). CONCLUSIONS Carefully selected patients with aortoiliac aneurysm without IIAA may safely undergo hypogastric artery overstenting without preemptive embolization during EVAR. IIA embolization is associated with buttock claudication and should be avoided if possible. Otherwise, at least one IIA should be preserved.
