One of the common heart diseases is aortic aneurysmThe aorta (Aorta) is the largest blood vessel in the body. It becomes abnormally enlarged (Aortic Aneurysm), and once it expands to a certain point, it can burst, leading to sudden, massive blood loss that can quickly result in death. Surgery is required to repair it.
The technology for heart surgery today continues to evolve constantly. There are two types of surgery for treating aortic aneurysm: open surgery and Endovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) with the use of a stent-graft expanded through a catheter, which is increasingly playing a more significant role in treatment due to its long-term outcomes being comparable to open surgery. Importantly, the minimally invasive approach leads to quicker patient recovery and lower mortality rates”
