The 14mm diameter stent has been very useful in relining kinked EVAR limbs in our practice. As this large stent goes through a 6F sheath, it makes it particularly useful.#
Example case below:
A 60year old male patient with a 7 cm juxta renal AAA and left Iliac occlusion had a AUI FEVAR, Right Iliac branch device and right to left surgical cross over graft. The Right EIA was very tortuous and caused a kink and a duplex/CT detected stenosis in the relatively stiff IBD external iliac limb, putting the circulation of both legs under threat. Recent cross over operation in the right groin meant access there was difficult.
We used percutenous access into the mid SFA with a 6F sheath that successfully closed with an angioseal and used a 14mmx80mm Optimed Sinus Repo stent across the stenosis with post dilatation with a 9 mm ballloon withy good results. Stenosis resolved on post procedure duplex.
