Mean length of stay was equivalent in US GREAT subjects and IDE subjects; OUS treatment was significantly longer, likely due to differing treatment protocols outside the U.S.

Two subjects were ineligible for device effectiveness analyses due to 1) 1 subject not receiving both IBE components (iliac extender used instead of internal iliac component); and 2) 1 subject had concomitant femoral artery repair in violation of study exclusion criteria. a All subjects exhibiting AAA enlargement were imaged with type II endoleaks (or in 1 subject, a type II converted to indeterminate endoleak) at the time of sac diameter assessment. b Eighty-four CIAs (81 subjects) and 47 CIAs (46 subjects) had available core lab measurements of CIA diameter change at 12 and 24 months, respectively. At 12 months, there were 3 bilaterally treated subjects with available CIA measurements in both CIAs; at 24 months, 1 bilateral subject.

Three of these subjects had indeterminate endoleaks previously assessed as type IIs at earlier follow-up, and 1 had indeterminate endoleak later assessed as a type II. b Fifty-seven subjects had type IIs observed at 1 month. Two subjects had multiple type IIs: 1 at the level of the Excluder trunk, 1 in the iliac branch. Of the 55 subjects with a singular type II observed at 1 month, 53 were observed at the level of the Excluder trunk. Two subjects exhibited a single endoleak at the level of the IBC/IIC. c Forty-five subjects presented with 46 type IIs: one subject had an additional type II at the level of the IBE. Of the 44 subjects with a singular type II, 43 were at the level of the Excluder trunk; 1 was at the level of the IBE. d Thirty-eight subjects exhibited 39 type IIs, with 1 subject exhibiting a second type II at the level of the left contralateral leg. e All reinterventions consisted of coil embolization of the endoleak. f Both interventions at 24 months were repeat coil embolizations for subjects undergoing initial type II intervention at 12 months. One of these subjects was considered to have an indeterminate endoleak by the core lab, however, the site considered it a type II and treated it with coil embolization.

27 Freedom from reintervention IDE 90.4%

28 Freedom from mortality IDE 91.8%

29 Conclusions IDE and GREAT Continued excellent outcomes for iliac aneurysm treatment using the GORE IBE through 2 years Low incidence of device-related thrombotic events requiring reintervention > 50% of cases was outside IFU within GREAT Comorbidity was more severe in IDE subjects

30 Conclusions IDE and GREAT MI < 6 Mo and non-percutaneous approach: more likely to undergo reinterventions Relatively high numbers of type II endoleaks, but only few interventions done/needed Sack expansion of CIAA was not 2 Yrs 45% sack decrease of 5 mm or more
