Aneurysm can develop completely without symptoms, but sometimes patients report pain in the abdominal cavity, back, or chest area. Most often, it is diagnosed during annual examinations using ultrasound of the abdominal cavity or computed tomography (CT).

Aneurysm rupture is one of the most dangerous complications of abdominal aortic aneurysm, in which mortality reaches 70%. If earlier “open surgery” was the only way to treat aneurysms of this aortic section, now the intravascular technique is used, without significant trauma and abdominal wall incisions - “endoprosthetics”.

Features:

  • Less traumatic surgery — performed through a 2 cm incision on the thigh.
  • The risk of complications is greatly reduced.
  • Fast recovery - as the operation takes place under local anesthesia, with a shorter duration.
  • Without prolonged rehabilitation - due to minimal trauma.
