Subsequently, vascular stent infections, although rare, are becoming a well-recognized complication with possibly devastating consequences, owing to the difficulties associated with its diagnosis and treatment. This has prompted significant interest in the condition regarding its pathophysiology, modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors, diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, and the possible implementation of prophylactic measures. We herein present a case of a patient with an infected aortoiliac stent 4\u00a0weeks after endovascular revision with atherectomy and additional stent insertion. The patient initially developed nonspecific symptoms and later developed a life-threatening hemorrhage, which was urgently controlled using a percutaneously inserted covered stent at the infected site. Definitive treatment using extraanatomical bypass implantation and an explantation of the infected stents was performed with excellent clinical response.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/15385744231217366","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,17]],"date-time":"2023-11-17T09:46:45Z","timestamp":1700214405000},"page":"436-442","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Nonspecific Presentation of an Infected Aorto-Iliac Artery Stent Following Endovascular Revision and Stent Insertion"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"58","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9772-2365","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammed","family":"Ayyad","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al Quds University, Jerusalem, Palestine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Laith A.","family":"Ayasa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al Quds University, Jerusalem, Palestine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sara","family":"Shbaita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, An Najah National University Nablus, Palestine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ahmad","family":"Qozat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vascular Surgery Department, Bonifatius Hospital, Lingen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J\u00f6rg","family":"Tessarek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vascular Surgery Department, Bonifatius Hospital, Lingen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_4_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejvs.2013.10.006"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jccase.2018.08.004"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.avsg.2018.02.047"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0035-1549375"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10016-003-0027-9"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5152\/dir.2016.15418"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2334-14-215"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejvs.2011.08.005"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvs.2007.05.043"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s100169900085"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvs.2018.10.062"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIR.0000000000000457"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/20009666.2020.1809260"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00259-008-1002-z"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvs.2015.08.113"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1538574418774663"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.semvascsurg.2017.11.001"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.medmal.2012.01.003"}],"container-title":["Vascular and Endovascular Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/15385744231217366","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/15385744231217366","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/15385744231217366","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,2]],"date-time":"2026-05-02T06:34:46Z","timestamp":1777703686000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/15385744231217366"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,17]]},"references-count":18,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2024,5]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/15385744231217366"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/15385744231217366","relation":{},"ISSN":["1538-5744","1938-9116"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1538-5744","type":"print"},{"value":"1938-9116","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,17]]}}}
