Aortoiliac endovascular stent-grafts are tubular devices placed inside the aorta and iliac arteries to treat aneurysms by reinforcing weakened vessel walls and reducing pressure. Clinically, they help prevent rupture by excluding the aneurysm sac while maintaining blood flow through the affected arteries, often used when surgical repair is high-risk.
These devices are typically delivered percutaneously via the femoral artery and self-expand at the target site. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on risk and intended use, with supply often limited to hospitals or specialized vascular centers due to their invasive nature.
