Typical disease processes of aorto-iliac (AI) segment include atherosclerosis, aneurysmal degeneration, dissection, and embolism.
The typical atherosclerotic occlusive lesions can affect the terminal infra-renal aorta, iliac bifurcation, and the common, external, and internal iliac arteries. Multi-level disease (including common femoral, profunda femoral, and superficial femoral arteries is frequently present).
