Abdominal aortic aneurysms are a common pathology encountered by the interventionalist. Most endovascular repairs are performed with conventional bifurcated devices. However, there are situations in which the use of an aorto-uni-iliac (AUI) device is required because the use of a bifurcated graft is not feasible. Standard indications for use of an AUI include a narrow aortic segment precluding delivery and adequate expansion of a bifurcated graft, unilateral iliac occlusion, tortuosity, severe stenosis, and the presence of iliac aneurysmal disease. Occasionally, an AUI may be used for aortoiliac occlusive disease or as a bailout technique with conventional endografting. This chapter elaborates on the use of two bifurcated stent grafts for creation of an AUI endograft.

The majority of abdominal aortic aneurysms have been treated by endovascular aneurysm repair in the past decade. Common perioperative complications after this procedure are mostly related to vascular access and improper stent-graft placement. We present the first case of bilateral lower extremity claudication due to severe angulation of the graft–aorta interface, which may have been prevented by a more critical consideration of the patient’s anatomy. Treatment required open explantation and repair of the abdominal aortic aneurysms which led to complete resolution of claudication. The results of this case highlight the importance of adherence to instructions for use guidelines.
