“…In fact there is no need for a laparatomy and the anesthesia period can be much shorter and lighter. Therefore endovascular surgery is a good option for patients with poor medical conditions (ASA-class 3 or 4) and therefore unfit for open procedures [2]. This group of patients typically demonstrates a high prevalence of comorbidity, such as peripheral arteriosclerosis, coronary heart diseases, (renal-vascular) hypertension, diabetes mellitus or other medical disorders [13,16].…”

“…Inflammation and platelet activation may cause additional complications, such as graft-infection, thrombosis and embolic processes in lungs, brain or gastric-intestinal system [2,17]. These complications can be lethal and will not always be identified as procedure-related mortality for patients who underwent EVAR because of the very fact that these complications can occur in the short-term as well as in the long term [4].…”
