Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate long-term results of self-expanding vs balloon-expandable hypogastric stent grafts in conjunction with iliac branch devices (IBDs) for aortoiliac aneurysm repair in a multicenter experience (pErformance of iLiac branch deVIces for aneurysmS involving the iliac bifurcation [pELVIS] Registry).Methods: All patients electively treated for aortoiliac aneurysm with the Cook IBD (Cook Medical, Bloomington, Ind) in nine European centers were reviewed. Clinical and imaging data were prospectively collected in each center, and a multicenter database was created and interrogated. The primary outcome was the primary patency of the IBDs. For the purpose of this investigation, three subgroups were identified: patients receiving a hypogastric balloon-expandable stent graft (BESg); those with a self-expanding stent graft (SESg); and those with any stent graft plus relining with a bare-metal stent (RESg).Results: Between 2005 and 2017, there were 691 patients who underwent 747 elective endovascular repairs of aortoiliac aneurysms (n = 518 [75.0%]) or isolated iliac aneurysms (n = 173 [25.0%]) with Cook IBDs (n = 56 bilateral) in nine European centers. Mean age was 72 years (range, 41-93 years); 658 (95.2%) patients were male. In 364 patients (52.7%), BESg was used; in 127 (18.4%), SESg; and in 200 (28.9%), RESg. At 30 days, there were 3 (0.4%) perioperative deaths, 3 (0.4%) technical failures, 7 (1.0%) graft thromboses, 30 (4.3%) reinterventions, and 1 (0.1%) conversion to open repair. After amean follow-up of 32 months (range, 0-128 months), 28 (3.7%) IBD occlusions and 17 (2.3%) IBD-related endoleaks occurred. In 10 patients, iliac diameter increased >5 mm (1.4%). Overall primary patency was 99.2% at 1 month, 97.9% at 12 months, and 95.1% at 72 months. Primary patency was not significantly different in the BESg vs SESg or RESg cohorts (P =.4). During follow-up, there were 126 (18.2%) reinterventions, 93 (13.5%) of which were IBD related, including 11 (1.6%) conversions. Overall, freedom from reintervention and conversion was 90.4% at 12 months and 71.0% at 72 months. IBD-related reinterventions during follow-up in the three cohorts were not significantly different (P =.3) Overall survival was 71.3% at 72 months without differences between the subgroups. At multivariate analysis, aneurysmal hypogastric artery (P <.001; Exp [B] = 4.44) and bilateral treatment (P =.02; Exp [B] = 1.87) were associated with an increase in late failure.Conclusions: In this wide real-world experience, long-term results of endovascular treatment of aortoiliac aneurysms with the IBD are favorable, with a low rate of late graft occlusion and aneurysm-related death. No significant differences in clinical outcomes were observed in patients receiving hypogastric BESg vs SESg or endovascular relining.
