A Comparison of Aortoiliac Disease between Eastern and Western Countries

Abstract: A variety of diseases are known to develop in the aortoiliac segment; these include abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and aortoiliac occlusive disease. This review summarizes several differences of aortoiliac diseases between eastern and western populations. The prevalence of AAA was higher in western countries (4.57% to 19%) than in eastern countries (0.89% to 4.9%). Greater aortic bifurcation angles were observed in the eastern population, while longer common iliac arteries and aneurysm necks were found in the… Show more

“… 12 Recently, a significant narrowing of large blood vessels in the abdomen has been observed. 13 Initial reports suggest that aPL carriers may have arterial stenosis, which is linked to thrombosis and vasculitis. 14 Subsequent cases have documented stenosis of visceral vessels such as the coeliac trunk, mesenteric artery and renal artery.…”

“…Individual anatomical differences further complicate ascending endovascular repair and affect surgical outcomes and the risk of aortoiliac disease. 18,19 The aortoiliac anatomy in Caucasians differs significantly from that of Asians, particularly in the length of the common iliac arteries and infrarenal abdominal aorta, and in the transverse diameter of the common, external iliac, and common femoral arteries. 20 LaBounty et al 21 found that that Africans had a smaller BSA-indexed aortic sinus and ascending Several cardiac biomarkers and inflammatory cytokines may play roles in diagnosis and prognosis of ascending aortic diseases.…”

“…Focal infrarenal stenosis of the aorta is relatively uncommon and disproportionately affects women [5][6][7]. This classically presents with symptoms of bilateral claudication and is often also related to hypoplastic aortoiliac syndrome which can make surgical endarterectomy and bypass a more complex and challenging procedure with greater risks [7,8].…”
