Popis: The evolution of technology and introduction of new generation devices has resulted in increasing utilization of iliac branch graft (IBG) for endovascular treatment of iliac aneurysms. The indications of total endovascular repair have been expanded to more complex and bilateral iliac aneurysms. Technical success for IBGs is high, ranging from 86 to 100 % in most recent series. With the introduction of newer generation devices, the occlusion rates have declined and IBG patency of 81–100 % is achieved at variable follow-up lengths. Nevertheless, the risk of iliac occlusions, frequently associated with buttock claudication, and endoleak still remain possible concerns that require carefully pre-implant assessment and patient selection. This chapter summarizes the current results of IBGs.
