Fenestrated Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair

Abstract

In order to offer more patients a durable endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair parallel, branched, and fenestrated grafts have been utilized. These treatments aim at increasing the quality of the proximal aortic graft landing zone by incorporating the healthy aortic neck at the renal and visceral arteries. Fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair has provided a standardized and approved treatment option for patients who may otherwise not be candidates for endovascular repair. We discuss the technique of fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair and the challenges involved in selecting the appropriate patients.
