“…Gregory et al [11] stated that although existing published data on the ALTO device are limited, if more published data show short-to long-term results comparable to those obtained using the Ovation iX [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19], then the ALTO device can be used more widely. However, whether ALTO devices can be successfully used in patients with more hostile aortic anatomies remains to be seen, considering the satisfac-tory results of Ovation iX use reported by Sirignano et al [17] and Morgan-Bates and Chaudhuri [19].…”

The ALTO abdominal stent graft system (Endologix Inc., Irvine, CA, USA) is a latest-generation polymer-based device used to treat patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. The present study describes the first case series of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms, including two patients with juxtarenal aneurysms, treated using the ALTO stent graft system. Six males were treated using the ALTO device at a single public center. All procedures were uneventful, and the dosimetric results recorded in terms of kerma-area product and fluoroscopy time were similar to those reported in previous studies. At the 1-month follow-up, computed tomography angiography showed no evidence of endoleak, device migration, thrombosis, or structural graft failure. This clinical series demonstrates that the use of the ALTO stent graft system is associated with promising patient outcomes. Lifelong postoperative imaging surveillance may highlight possible late failures and suggest potential graft improvements.

“…Another possibility newly described is the use of an Ovation low-profile stent graft with a polymer ring sealing technology [171] which revealed an aneurysm-related 5 year-mortality of only 99.3% and freedom of endoleak type Ia at 5 years of 95.8% in 1,296 pts analysed from the ENCORE database [172]. Half of the pts had complex anatomies.…”
