摘要
Iliac artery tortuosity can be a limiting factor in treating abdominal aortic aneurysms by endovascular means. In this case, a 6F catheter guiding sheath was used to allow tracking of the superstiff wire to straighten the iliac artery on the left. This allowed for tracking of the larger sheath so that a bifurcated device could be completed. This technique may be useful in dealing with extreme iliac tortuosity if one is unable to advance the superstiff wire.
