Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) of an abdominal aortic aneurysm

Discussion:

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is performed in patients undergoing elective and emergency aneurysm repair. A stent graft is inserted into the aneurysmal portion of the aorta. The stent graft includes a graft for blood flow and a stent for anchoring and support. The goal is to redirect blood flow through the graft, bypassing the aneurysm.

Depending on the anatomy of the aneurysm and iliac vessels, not all aneurysms are suitable for EVAR, and pre-procedure evaluation is mandatory.
