One subset of peripheral arterial disease is aortoiliac occlusive diseases (AIOD). AIOD is the term for all arterial lesions between the infrarenal distal aorta and common femoral artery. Implantation of kissing stents (KS) with covered stents (CS), bare-metal stents (BMS) is one of the endovascular treatment (ET) modalities for AIOD involving aortic bifurcation. In this study, we report the outcomes of the KS technique in infrarenal AIOD.
