    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May–Thurner_syndrome

    Because of its similarities to deep vein thrombosis (DVT), May–Thurner syndrome is rarely diagnosed amongst the general population. In this condition, the right iliac artery sequesters and compresses the left common iliac vein against the lumbar section of the spine, [5] resulting in swelling of the legs and ankles, pain, tingling, and/or numbness in the legs and feet.

    Kissing balloon angioplasty +/- stent, so named because the two common iliac stents touch each other in the distal aorta. Aorto-iliac bypass graft; Axillary-bi-femoral [3] [4] and femoral-femoral bypass (sometimes abbreviated "ax-fem fem-fem")

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_venous_insufficiency

    If the impaired vein function causes significant symptoms, such as swelling and ulcer formation, it is referred to as chronic venous disease. [3] It is sometimes called chronic peripheral venous insufficiency and should not be confused with post-thrombotic syndrome in which the deep veins have been damaged by previous deep vein thrombosis .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aortic_bifurcation

    The aortic bifurcation is the point at which the abdominal aorta bifurcates (forks) into the left and right common iliac arteries. The aortic bifurcation is usually seen at the level of L4, [1] just above the junction of the left and right common iliac veins. The right common iliac artery passes in front of the left common iliac vein.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endovascular_aneurysm_repair

    The abdominal aneurysm extends down to the common iliac arteries in about 25%-30% of patients. In such cases, the iliac limbs can be extended into the external iliac artery to bypass a common iliac aneurysm. Alternatively, a specially designed endograft, (an iliac branch device) can be used to preserve flow to the internal iliac arteries.
