While treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) with an endograft — also known as an endoluminal graft or stent-graft — is a much less invasive approach to treating AAA, endografts have specific technical limitations and potential complications that must be considered.

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to manage abdominal aortic aneurysms. The aorta is the largest artery that carries blood from your heart to other parts of your body.

The endograft acts as an artificial lumen for blood to flow through, protecting the surrounding aneurysm sac. This reduces the pressure in the aneurysm, which itself will usually thrombose and shrink in size over time.

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is an important advance in the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). EVAR is performed by inserting graft components that are folded and compressed within a delivery sheath through the lumen …

Endovascular repair is a type of treatment for an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). An AAA is a bulge in the wall of the large artery below your heart. The large artery is called the aorta. The bulge is caused by a weak section in the artery wall. The bulge is at risk of tearing.

Endovascular stent grafting, or endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), is a newer form of treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysm that is less invasive than open surgery. Endovascular stent grafting uses an endovascular stent graft to reinforce the wall of the aorta and to help keep the damaged area from rupturing.

2014年10月23日 · Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) has been shown to reduce blood loss, operative time, length of hospital stay, mortality, and morbidity compared with open surgical repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs).

2012年12月1日 · The literature supporting the use of branched or fenestrated endografts for use in the management of pararenal and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAA) will be reviewed. Finally, we will discuss products in the endograft pipeline, …

Aortic endograft infection (AEI) is a rare but life-threatening complication of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). The clinical features of AEI range from generalized weakness and mild fever to fatal aortic rupture or sepsis.

5 天之前 · The E-nside endograft is technically a self-expanding nitinol stent graft covered with polyester with four pre-cannulated branches sewn into the textile tube. Proximally the graft is designed to dock in a TEVAR device and thus has no ancillary proximal fixation, such as barbs. The delivery system has an 8.2 mm (24 Fr) outer diameter and also ...
