Conclusion EVAR for repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) has an early survival
benefit but inferior late survival compared with open repair. Summary In the US Medicare …

Background Short-term survival benefits of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) versus
open repair of intact abdominal aortic aneurysms have been shown in randomised trials, but …

According to the recent Society for Vascular Surgery practice guidelines, 1 elective repair is

It has been well documented that the early survival advantage of endovascular abdominal

Background Any possible long-term benefit from endovascular (EVAR) versus open surgical
repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) remains unproven. Long-term data from the …

repair (EVAR) compared with open repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm remains without a …

Background Although endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has a lower 30-day operative
