Italian term

assi iliaco-femorali

Italian to English Medical Medical: Cardiology
From a patient admitted to undergo TAVI:

AORTA TORACOADDOMINALE

Pervi e di buon calibro anche gli assi iliaco-femorali fin dove esplorati (minima ateromasia parietale mista in corrispondenza di entrambe le arterie iliache comuni).

TIA! :)

iliofemoral arteries

And the assi would simply be vessels or, more specifically in this case, arteries.
