The relative merits of aortomonoiliac and bifurcated stent-graft configurations depend on the patient's arterial anatomy and clinical status. Aortomonoiliac stent-grafts are simple to make, simple to insert, and versatile. They are most useful when the iliac artery anatomy is severely distorted and the patient is old, sick, and inactive. The main problems with this approach are all consequences of femorofemoral bypass. The bifurcated stent-graft is the preferred alternative in healthy patients, because it ensures flow to both common iliac arteries, thereby eliminating the need for femorofemoral bypass. However, bifurcated stent-grafts and their delivery systems are difficult to make and difficult to deploy, especially when the iliac anatomy is distorted or emergency circumstances preclude preoperative sizing. This article addresses the advantages and disadvantages of the aortomonoiliac graft.
