AAA Endovascular Graft Repair: Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Procedure

AAA Endovascular Graft Repair (TAVR)

AAA endovascular graft repair, known as TAVR, involves inserting a replacement valve through a catheter to treat aortic aneurysms. This minimally invasive procedure offers a promising alternative to traditional open surgery.

TAVR reduces surgical risks and shortens recovery time, making it a preferred option for patients deemed high-risk for open surgery or those seeking less invasive treatment for aortic aneurysms.

Here’s a step-by-step explanation of how AAA Endovascular Graft Repair typically works

1) Pre-procedural Evaluation

2) Anesthesia Administration

3) Groin Artery Access

4) Graft Delivery

5) Graft Expansion

6) Completion Angiography

7) Closure of Access Site

8) Post-procedural Monitoring

AAA Endovascular Graft Repair is used in various medical specialties

AAA endovascular graft repair is primarily utilized in vascular surgery, with vascular surgeons specializing in the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). Additionally, interventional radiologists and interventional cardiologists may also be involved in performing or assisting with the procedure, particularly in cases where a multidisciplinary approach is required.
