From the abstract

The coverage of a hypogastric artery (HA) may lead to several complications, such as gluteal claudication, erectile dysfunction, and even a higher risk of spinal cord ischemia in complex aortic repair. It has been shown to occur in 1% to 8% of endovascular aortic repair. We present the balloon-pushing technique to rescue an HA after its overstenting by an iliac limb.

Authors' conclusions

The balloon-pushing technique is a simple technique to rescue the HA after its coverage by an iliac limb. Patient anatomy and knowledge of the endografts must be carefully considered.Clinical ImpactThe balloon-pushing technique is a simple technique to rescue the hypogastric artery after its coverage by an iliac limb. Despite its simplicity the technique has not been previously described.
