Abstract
Contrary to popular wisdom, predominantly unilateral aortoiliac bifurcation disease can be safely treated with a single stent if the contralateral common iliac ostium is protected with matching balloon inflation. Larger studies on this novel approach with a longer clinical follow-up are needed to validate our results.
