Patients undergoing endovascular repair (EVAR) of aortoiliac or iliac artery aneurysm may require sacrifice of one or both internal iliac arteries (IIAs). Until Food and Drug Administration-approved commercial grafts became available, endovascular IIA preservation was accomplished using the "sandwich" technique, but limited information is available regarding the results of this method. After ob...

Since Parodi reported the first successful endovascular aneurysm repair procedure in 1991, this procedure has gained wide acceptance for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms in the past two decades. This minimally invasive approach has been proven effective and safe in the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm patients with lower early morbidity and mortality rates compared to open surg...

BACKGROUND Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) (using an Federal Drug Association-approved AneuRx device) compared to conventional surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) previously rendered favourable outcomes regarding post-operative pain, avoidance of laparotomy, and rapid rehabilitation and hospital discharge in high-risk patients, including octagenarians. OBJECTIVES To assess ...

Navigation of the aorta and aortic branch vessels using standard care two-dimensional x-ray fluoroscopy in thoracic, fenestrated, infrarenal endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR/FEVAR/EVAR) has multiple disadvantages including exposure to ionizing radiation, contrast agent administration, limited visualization complex anatomy. The objective this study is demonstrate safety efficacy electromagnet...
