Abstract
A 2-year-old girl presented with severe abdominal pain due to a giant iliac artery aneurysm. We embolized the internal iliac artery with microcoils and then eliminated the aneurysmal sac using a BeGraft peripheral stent without any complications. To the best of our knowledge, there are no previous reports of a transcatheter giant iliac artery intervention.
