Cost comparison of iliac branch stents for aortic aneurysm
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at whether using a special stent (called an iliac branch device) to repair a bulge in your lower aorta or iliac arteries is cost-effective. It compares this newer, less-invasive method to traditional open surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a bulge (aneurysm) in your lower aorta or iliac arteries
- You had planned (not emergency) surgery to repair it, either open surgery with a graft or a less invasive stent procedure using an iliac branch device
- You can understand and sign a consent form

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial is testing a specific stent-graft system, called E-liac, to treat aneurysms in the aorta or iliac arteries. It may be used alone or with other devices. The study will track how well it works.
This study tests a new stent-graft device for treating aneurysms in the iliac artery. It may be an option if you have an aneurysm that has grown or is large enough to need treatment.
This study tests a special stent called an iliac branch stent to repair the artery that supplies blood to your pelvis. It may help people with an iliac artery aneurysm, often together with an abdominal aortic aneurysm.
This trial studies a less invasive stent procedure that blocks blood flow into certain large aneurysms in the chest-to-abdomen or upper abdomen area. It may help prevent aneurysm growth and rupture while avoiding the risks of open surgery.
This study looks at using special branched stent-grafts to treat problems in the aortic arch (such as aneurysm or certain tears). It focuses on how well this approach works and how patients do over follow-up visits.
This study evaluates how well branched stent grafts work after repairing certain large or fast-growing aortic aneurysms (bulges in the main artery). It also checks blood-flow and organ function—especially flow to organs—in the weeks and months after the procedure.
