Percutaneous Aortic Aneurysm Repair by Stent Grafts, is also sometimes referred to as endovascular stent grafts. It is a life-saving, minimally invasive treatment. It is quite different from the traditional approach, where there is a need to make a huge incision. In this case, the procedure is done through small incisions, with the help of catheters. Doctors carefully place a stent within the weakened part of the aortic valve, to offer support and strength.

An Aortic Aneurysm is defined as a tiny bulge, similar to a balloon, that developes on any part of the aorta when its walls become weak.

Preparation

  • You will need to plan an appointment with your doctor and get yourself assessed. Your doctor will go through your medical history and perform a physical exam.
