Endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a safe and efficacious treatment for both unruptured and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms. While perioperative mortality is lower with EVAR, long-term outcomes are similar between EVAR and ...

Endovascular aneurysm repair lowers the risk of life-threatening tears or ruptures. EVAR uses minimally invasive techniques to reinforce blood vessel walls.

Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is widely accepted as an effective and less invasive treatment alternative to open surgical AAA repair. 1 However, this endovascular procedure is not free of complications.

Apr 2, 2020 · In their recent meta-analysis, Antoniou et al. confirmed the loss of early benefit during late follow up after endovascular aortic repair (EVAR), reporting increased rates of aneurysm rupture and secondary interventions compared with open repair. 1 Such disappointing long term results raise concerns about patient selection and EVAR durability ...

EVAR failure is a dynamic process that cannot be attributed to a single cause. Most often, it is a combination of several factors involving the patient, device, and physician that result in failure.

Since OSR and EVAR are currently the only treatment options available in the management of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs), the main question arising in clinical practice is whether EVAR or OSR confers more favourable short and long-term outcomes for patients presenting with unruptured AAAs.

Behind the Scenes of Disappointing Long Term EVAR Results: Pathophysiological Insights and Future Research Leads Eur J Vasc Endovasc Surg . 2020 Dec;60(6):954-955. doi: 10.1016/j.ejvs.2020.06.029.

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a type of minimally-invasive endovascular surgery used to treat pathology of the aorta, most commonly an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). When used to treat thoracic aortic disease, the procedure is then specifically termed TEVAR for "thoracic endovascular aortic/aneurysm repair."

Jan 14, 2024 · Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) is a notable minimally invasive technique that has revolutionized the treatment of aortic aneurysms. With this technique, patients experience a faster recovery. What is an Aneurysm? An aneurysm is a weakened and bulging area in the wall of a blood vessel.
