  2. Endovascular aneurysm repair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endovascular_aneurysm_repair

    Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a type of minimally-invasive endovascular surgery used to treat pathology of the aorta, most commonly an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). When used to treat thoracic aortic disease, the procedure is then specifically termed TEVAR for "thoracic endovascular aortic/aneurysm repair."

    Later, in 1989, in Kharkiv, Ukraine, Volodos and his team performed the world's first endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) procedure for treating abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). It was the first time when the original unibody bifurcated stent graft and innovative delivery system were used.

    In 2001, former presidential candidate Bob Dole underwent surgery for an abdominal aortic aneurysm in which a team led by vascular surgeon Kenneth Ouriel inserted a stent graft: [97] Ouriel said that the team inserted a Y-shaped tube through an incision in Dole's leg and placed it inside the weakened portion of the aorta.

    The first device was simple, according to Parodi: “It was a graft I designed with expandable ends, the extra-large Palmaz stent, a Teflon sheath with a valve, a wire, and the valvuplasty balloon, which I took from the cardiologists." Juan Parodi invited Julio Palmaz to participate in the case at the Instituto Cardiovascular de Buenos Aires.

  6. Open aortic surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_aortic_surgery

    Prior to the advent of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), OAS was the only surgical treatment available for aortic aneurysms. The shift away from open aortic surgery towards endovascular surgery since 2003 has been driven by worse perioperative mortality associated with OAS, particularly in patients in relatively frail health.

  7. Bentall procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bentall_procedure

    The Endo-Bentall device is made up of three parts: a self-expanding transcatheter aortic valve (TAVR) + aortic endovascular stent graft (TEVAR) and wire-reinforced fenestrations. [13] Candidacy of this procedure is determined by an interdisciplinary team which may include cardiac and vascular surgeons, as well as interventional cardiologists.

    Michael L. Marin (born 1956) is an American vascular surgeon.Together with Drs. Frank Veith, Juan C. Parodi and Claudio J. Schonholz, he was the first in the United States to perform minimally invasive aortic aneurysm surgery [1] (stent-graft procedure). [2]

    Dr. Parodi suggested him to join his project on stent graft which he plans to use on patients who are in higher risk of developing abdominal aortic aneurysms. Knowing Dr. Schonholz's work on carotid angioplasty, they merged forces in 1990 and became the first team of physicians to use stent graft to treat a human with abdominal aortic aneurysm.
