Percutaneous Aortoiliac Thromboendarterectomy for Acute Limb Ischemia.

Aortoiliac occlusive disease (AIOD) can occur from either chronic, progressive atherosclerotic disease, acute on chronic thrombosis or acute arterial embolism, and can all result in limb ischemia. Bypass surgery had long been the gold standard for treatment for AIOD, however, with advances in endovascular techniques, minimally invasive treatment of aortoiliac lesions has become the first line choice of management in many cases. Herein, we describe a case of utilizing the Inari ClotTriever to perform aortoiliac mechanical thrombectomy and the ARTIX thrombectomy system to perform an embolectomy the superficial femoral artery, highlighting new therapies to treat AIOD.
