Endovascular Aneurysm

An endovascular aortic aneurysm repair(EVAR) is a surgical procedure to treat an aortic aneurysm, a dangerous bulge in the body's main artery. When the thoracic rather than the abdominal aorta is concerned, the procedure is called TEVAR (thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair). During the procedure, the aneurysmal segment of the aorta is excluded from the circulation by placing and deploying a stentgraft, typically introduced via small incisions in the groin. This procedure is performed to prevent the aneurysm from rupturing, which is an acutely life-threatening event with high mortality.
