It has been well documented that the early survival advantage of endovascular abdominal
aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) is lost over time, with mortality following open or …

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 …

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 Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has become the preferred strategy for
elective repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) for many patients. However, the …

Objective This study synthesized the literature comparing the long-term (5-9 years) and very
long-term (≥ 10 years) all-cause mortality, reintervention, and secondary rupture rates …

To provide a meta-analysis of studies evaluating long-term all-cause mortality, aneurysm-
related mortality and re-intervention after open or endovascular repair for abdominal aortic …

Background Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a new technology to treat patients
with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) when the anatomy is suitable. Uncertainty exists …

According to the recent Society for Vascular Surgery practice guidelines, 1 elective repair is
recommended for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) $5.5 cm in maximum diameter. Open …

Objective Randomized trials have shown an initial survival benefit of endovascular over
conventional open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair but no long-term difference up to 6 …

Background and objective: Current evidence suggests short-term survival benefit from
endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) versus open surgical repair (OSR) in elective …
