Endovascular repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms using fenestrated and branched endografts

Endovascular repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms can be performed with high technical success and low mortality and morbidity. However, the need for secondary reinterventions and continued graft surveillance represents major limitations compared with results of conventional open surgical repair. Long-term follow-up is needed before the widespread use of these techniques in younger or lower-risk patients.
