Open Versus Endovascular Repair of Infrarenal Aortic Aneurysm

  • Zachary J. Wanken

摘要

Purpose of Review

To summarize recent data comparing endovascular and open repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms, with emphasis on long-term durability and patient-centered decision-making.

Recent Findings

Randomized controlled trials and real-world studies show that while endovascular repair offers lower perioperative risk, its long-term survival benefit erodes over time, with higher rates of reintervention and aneurysm-related mortality. Adherence to device instructions for use improves durability. However, the benefits of long-term surveillance and reintervention remain unclear. Shared decision-making and emerging decision aids can help align treatment with patient values.

Summary

Choosing repair type requires balancing early procedural risk with long-term outcomes. Individualized, preference-sensitive care is critical, especially as technologies evolve and long-term follow-up remains a challenge.
