Summary
This trial will compare two techniques for treating complex blockages in the iliac artery to see which is more successful.
Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with complex iliac occlusive disease, who can follow the study plan and have specific types of blockages in their pelvic arteries. They must not be pregnant, allergic to stent materials like nitinol or heparin, have severe kidney issues, recent lower extremity vascular procedures (except certain angiograms), previous iliac artery stents or surgeries, or require other leg artery treatments.
What is being tested?
This trial is testing if the GORE VIABAHN VBX Balloon Expandable Endoprosthesis is better for keeping blood vessels open compared to traditional bare metal stents in patients with complicated blockages in the pelvic arteries.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions at the insertion site such as pain or bleeding, infection risk, damage to surrounding blood vessels or organs from device placement and possible allergies to device materials.
