Editor's Choice - A Study of the Cost-effectiveness of Fenestrated/branched EVAR Compared with Open Surgery for Patients with Complex Aortic Aneurysms at 2 Years

f/b EVAR in high risk patients offers similar 2 year mortality to OSR performed in lower risk patients but at a higher cost. The cost is mainly driven by the cost of the stent graft, which is not compensated for by lower healthcare resource consumption. Further studies are necessary to evaluate the cost-effectiveness in low risk f/b EVAR patients who may experience fewer complications.
