A totally endovascular approach to complex aortic aneurysms using fenestrated and branched stent-grafts is a technically demanding alternative to open surgical repair of thoracoabdominal and pararenal aneurysms. Complications of these complex endovascular reconstructions are varied, from dislocation of the stent-graft to occlusion of the target vessels. Based on our growing experience with these procedures, we reviewed the causes leading to secondary procedures after ≥100 branched/fenestrated stent-graft repairs and now propose several alterations to the technique that could improve the results of this approach to complex aortic aneurysm repair. © 2011 by the International Society of Endovascular Specialists.

Abstract

Complications of these complex endovascular reconstructions are varied, from dislocation of the stent-graft to occlusion of the target vessels. Based on our growing experience with these procedures, we reviewed the causes leading to secondary procedures after ≥100 branched/fenestrated stent-graft repairs and now propose several alterations to the technique that could improve the results of this approach to complex aortic aneurysm repair. © 2011 by the International Society of Endovascular Specialists.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
