Strategies for severely calcified stenotic iliac arteries. (A-C) Internal endoconduit: (A) a severely calcified stenotic external iliac artery (arrow) was seen in a patient with an abdominal aortic aneurysm. (B) After an 8×100 mm Viabahn stent graft (WL Gore and Associates) was placed in the calcified lesion (arrow), balloon dilatation was performed using a high-pressure balloon catheter. (C) The widely opened lumen (arrow) was created in the external iliac artery. (D) Temporary surgical conduit: a 10 mm Dacron graft (arrow) was attached to the calcium-free iliac artery using a retroperitoneal approach.
