Abstract

Until 15 years ago, abdominal aortic aneurysm treatment involved major abdominal surgery in which a prosthetic graft was sewn into the aortic wall. As vascular surgeons were increasingly confronted with older patients with severe co-morbidity, attempts for less invasive aneurysm treatment were made. In 1991, Parodi et al. [1] were the first to report successful endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) in human patients. Their technique involved cannulation of the common femoral artery and endovascular placement of a Dacron tubular graft with attached balloon expandable stents to anchor the graft to the aortic wall. Since then, this technique has become widely available and has emerged as a frequently used alternative for open aneurysm treatment. Today, many different types of endografts are available, and more varied and also more challenging anatomies can be treated endovascularly.
