For patients who are not good candidates for open surgical repair of an AAA, EVAR represents a less invasive and less expensive alternative. In addition, for those patients who would benefit from an EVAR but do not meet the stringent practice guidelines described by the 2005 ACC/AHA, aortic cuffs can be a useful adjunct that can help seal off leaks. |  |
