Abstract

Purpose: To report outcomes of elective endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) using the Anaconda stent-graft in a tertiary vascular center. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted of 271 patients (mean age 71.5 years; 260 men) who underwent elective EVAR for abdominal aortic aneurysm using the Anaconda stent-graft from January 2006 to January 2017. Median aneurysm diameter was 58 mm (range 50-90). All patients were anatomically suitable for EVAR according to the 2003 version of the instructions for use. Follow-up included computed tomography angiography at 1, 6, and 12 months and yearly thereafter for the first 4 years and then every 2 years. Primary outcomes included technical success and 30-day aneurysm-related mortality and complications; secondary outcomes were overall and aneurysm-related mortality and aneurysm-related morbidity in follow-up. Results: The Anaconda stent-graft was implanted successfully in all patients. Primary and secondary technical success rates were 99.6% and 100%, respectively. Three patients (1.1%) died within 30 days of causes unrelated to the aneurysm, while 15 patients (5.5%) suffered perioperative complications. Median follow-up was 72 months (range 14-141). The overall type I end...Continue Reading

Aneurysm

Aneurysms are outward distensions or bulges that occurs in a weakened wall of blood vessels. Discover the latest research on aneurysms here.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.

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.
