Abstract

To summarize the results of endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) treatment using several endograft designs over a 4.5-year experience and offer comparisons on the various devices. From May 1992 to August 1996, 121 AAA patients meeting the criteria for an endoluminal repair were treated with 1 of 5 endograft designs in three configurations. The endografts were implanted in the operating room under fluoroscopic control. Follow-up included contrast-enhanced computed tomography within 10 days of operation, 6 months postoperatively, and annually thereafter. Endografts were successfully deployed in 106 patients (88%). Fifteen cases were converted to open repair. Six procedure-related deaths occurred within 30 days owing to myocardial infarction (3), combined renal failure and septicemia (2), and multisystem failure (1). There were 36 local/vascular complications (30%) and 18 systemic/remote complications (15%). Of the 121 patients undergoing endoluminal AAA repair, 93 (77%) are currently alive and well with their AAAs excluded from the circulation. Trends in endoluminal AAA repair and prosthetic design point toward simpler devices and earlier treatment of smaller aneurysms once the long-term outcome of aortic endografting has...Continue Reading

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.
