14.5 Conclusion

This chapter has focussed on endovascular treatment for a variety of aneurysms. Visceral and isolated iliac aneurysms are relatively uncommon, but with the exception of common iliac aneurysms they can be very challenging to treat by open surgical methods. Although their incidence makes it highly unlikely that firm evidence will ever be available from randomised studies, it is clear that a variety of endovascular therapies are now available which provide successful treatment, at least in the medium term, whilst avoiding the potential complications of difficult surgery. The use of ultrasound compression and more recently percutaneous thrombin injection has been a revolution in the management of femoral, and other, false aneurysms occurring after catheterisation, so that few of these patients now need to be managed with open surgery.
