A Cost-Utility Analysis of Endovascular Aneurysm Repair for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Objective: To assess medical economic adequacy of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Methods: Cost-utility analysis. A total of 21 patients with AAA treated at Ibaraki Prefectural Central Hospital in 2014 were divided into non-ruptured EVAR (Group E) and open surgery (OS) (Group O), and ruptured OS (Group R) groups, and hospital costs were aggregated with a...
متن کاملTechniques in Endovascular Aneurysm Repair
Endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (EVARs) has revolutionized the treatment of aortic aneurysms, with over half of elective abdominal aortic aneurysm repairs performed endoluminally each year. Since the first endografts were placed two decades ago, many changes have been made in graft design, operative technique, and management of complications. This paper summarizes m...
متن کاملEndovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
The early 1990s ushered in the era of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Diffusion of this technology, although widespread, has been met with enthusiasm by some and caution by others. Advocates of traditional open surgical techniques maintain that EVAR is costly and that long-term outcomes for patients are inferior. The objectives of the present review are to use a case scenario to highlight ...
متن کاملEndovascular aneurysm repair: current status.
S ince first described by Parodi in 1991, endovascular aor-tic repair (EVAR) has progressively and dramatically changed the approach to treating abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) disease. 1 Whereas historically developed to treat patients unfit for open repair, EVAR now represents the primary paradigm by which most infrarenal AAAs are managed. This paradigm shift has occurred in the setting of lo...
متن کاملEndovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repair (EVAR)
Over the past 20 years the availability of aortic stent-grafts has allowed a major step change in the management of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Prior to this open surgical resection, first described by Charles Dubost in 1950, was the mainstay of AAA management(1). For elective cases open surgical repair has now largely been superseded by the deployment of a covered stent (stent-graft) thr...
