Systematic review of recent evidence for the safety and efficacy of elective endovascular repair in the management of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm

Abstract: EVAR is technically effective and safe, with lower short-term morbidity and mortality rates than open surgery. However, there is a need for extended follow-up as the long-term success of EVAR in preventing aneurysm-related deaths is not yet known.

“…The results also confirm that careful long-term follow-up of surgical innovations is essential, as discussed in the Idea-Development-Exploration-Assessment-Long-term (IDEAL) study statement. 232 Comparing the rates we present in this report with others in the literature is difficult as many other studies present percentage risks [233][234][235][236] rather than rates. The study most contemporaneous with the EVAR trials is based on EUROSTAR registry data on 2846 patients undergoing EVAR between 1999 and 2004 and reported Kaplan-Meier estimates for reintervention at 1, 2, 3 and 4 years of 6%, 9%, 12% and 14%, respectively; 237 these are rather low compared with the rates of 12%, 14%, 17% and 21% that we present for EVAR trial 1.…”

“…At 12 months, the endoleak rate was 21%, with increase in the number of type I endoleaks (6.8%) and type III endoleaks, and decrease in the number of type II endoleaks. The annual rate of secondary reintervention was 16.2% (20) . In the present casuistry, the percentages of secondary endoleaks were the following: type I, 2.9%; type II, 1.9%; type III, 2.9%; maintaining the high indices of endoleak types I and III as causes for reintervention during one-year follow-up.…”

“…4 Conventional management of AAA is by open repair and is associated with a mortality rate of 1% to 6%. 5,6 Open abdominal surgery for treating AAA is connected with a high risk of kidney ischemia owing to aortic clamping, and requires ischemia-protecting procedures for the graft (eg, temporary axillofemoral bypass, aortoiliac shunt, aortofemoral shunt, aortofemoral bypass, femorofemoral bypass with extracorporal circulation, and cold perfusion of the graft.) 7.8 In 1991, when Parodi and associates 9 reported the first endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) by implanting stent grafts without aortic clamping, the procedure has become the preferable way in case of abdominal aneurysm treatment.…”
