Abstract
Observational evidence at high risk of confounding suggests that compared with open repair for TAA, TEVAR reduced risk of mortality, paraplegia, spinal cord ischemia, and pulmonary complications within 30Â days of intervention. Patients undergoing TEVAR also had shorter length of hospital and ICU stay compared with patients undergoing open repair.
