ABSTRACT
Objective [WT5”BZ] To evaluate the preliminary clinical results of the endovascular grafts for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA).[WT5”HZ]Methods [WT5”BZ] Fourteen patients with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms underwent transluminal endovascular graft placement for the exclusion of AAA.[WT5”HZ]Results [WT5”BZ] Two patients received tubular and 12 patients received bifurcated endograft, the placement was successful in all cases. Aortography carried out immediatly after the procedure showed the AAA were completely excluded by endografts, and no endoleaks both on the proximal or distal connections. Myocardial infarction developing in a patient postoperatively was successfully treated by thrombolysis. Perioperative death occurred in 2 cases. Technical success at 30 days was 85 7%. 24 month follow up in 12 cases found migration of the graft in none and endoleaks in 2 cases.[WT5”HZ] Conclusion [WT5”BZ] Based on our initial results and a rather short follow up period of 24 months, the endovascular treatment of AAA with stent graft is safe and effective. Long term follow up is needed to evaluate the feasibity of this procedure.
