description

Since the introduction of EndoVascular Aortic Repair (EVAR) for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) more than 20 years ago, the technique has evolved rapidly, from tubular grafts for fairly simple abdominal aortic anatomy, to bifurcated, fenestrated, branched, or parallel grafts for complex aortic aneurysms, no longer confined to the infrarenal abdominal aorta.
