In contrast, <b>open repair<\/b> involves a larger incision in the abdomen or chest to directly access and repair the affected section of the aorta.<\/p><p>In appropriately selected patients, both EVAR and open repair can achieve comparable outcomes. EVAR may offer a short-term survival benefit in some patients, although long-term outcomes vary and regular follow-up is required after treatment.<\/p><p>As a minimally invasive procedure, EVAR is associated with several potential advantages, including:<\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\">Shorter operative time<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Less blood loss<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Reduced duration of mechanical ventilation<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/14981437\/\">Lower cardiac and pulmonary risks<\/a><\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Fewer and less severe post-operative complications<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Shorter stays in the ICU and hospital<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Faster initial recovery<\/li><\/ul><p>Open repair, while more invasive, may be recommended in cases where the aneurysm\u2019s anatomy is not suitable for EVAR or where a more durable long-term repair is preferred.<\/p><p>Ultimately, the choice between EVAR and open repair is <b>individualised<\/b>. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vascularclinic.sg\/zh\/\">\u8840\u7ba1\u5916\u79d1\u533b\u751f<\/a> will assess your condition and discuss the most appropriate treatment approach based on your specific clinical needs.<\/p><h2>Who is EVAR Suitable For?<\/h2><p>EVAR may be considered for patients with aortic aneurysms that are:<\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\">Large in size (generally over 5.5 cm in men or 5.0 cm in women)<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Increasing in size over time (for example, more than 0.5 cm within six months)<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Causing symptoms such as abdominal, back or chest pain<\/li><\/ul><p>Suitability for EVAR also depends on several individual factors:<\/p><p>These include your overall health, life expectancy and whether the aneurysm\u2019s shape and location allow for secure placement of the stent graft. The blood vessels in the groin must also be suitable to safely deliver the device.<\/p><p>Because of these considerations, <b>not all aneurysms can be treated with EVAR. <\/b>A detailed clinical assessment, including imaging studies, is required to determine the most appropriate treatment approach.<\/p><h2>Are There Risks with Endovascular Aneurysm Repair?<\/h2><p>As with any procedure, EVAR carries some risks. However, it is generally considered a minimally invasive approach and is commonly performed in appropriately selected patients.<\/p><p>Potential risks may include:<\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\">Minor bleeding or bruising at the groin access site<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Injury to nearby blood vessels or surrounding structures<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Kidney strain related to the use of contrast dye<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Reduced blood flow to the legs due to clot formation (uncommon)<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Wound infection or haematoma at the incision site<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Endoleak, where blood continues to flow into the aneurysm sac and may require monitoring or further treatment<\/li><\/ul><p>Your doctor will take steps to <b>minimise<\/b> these risks and monitor you closely during and after the procedure.<\/p><p><b>If you have any known allergies <\/b>or sensitivities, including to medications, contrast dye, iodine or latex, it is important to inform your doctor beforehand.<\/p><p>The overall risk profile varies from person to person. A detailed discussion with your doctor can help you better understand the potential risks and how they relate to your individual condition.<\/p><h2>What Should I Take Note of Before and After EVAR?<\/h2><h3>Pre-Endovascular Aneurysm Repair<\/h3><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Medical Evaluation:<\/b> You\u2019ll undergo scans (like a CT angiogram) to assess the size and location of your aneurysm, and ensure you&#8217;re suitable for EVAR.<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Medication Review:<\/b> Inform your doctor about any medications or supplements you&#8217;re taking. You may be asked to stop certain blood thinners before the procedure.<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Fasting:<\/b> You\u2019ll likely need to fast (no food or drink) for several hours before the procedure.<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Allergy Alert:<\/b> Let your doctor know if you\u2019re allergic to contrast dye, iodine, latex, shellfish, or any medications.<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Arranging Support:<\/b> Plan for someone to accompany you and help you home after discharge.<\/li><\/ul><h3>Post-Endovascular Aneurysm Repair<\/h3><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Hospital Stay:<\/b> Most patients stay in hospital for 1 to 2 days for monitoring. In some cases, a short stay in the ICU may be required.<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Wound Care:<\/b> Keep the groin area clean and dry. Watch for signs of infection like redness or discharge.<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>\u6d3b\u52a8\uff1a<\/b> Light activity is encouraged, but avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for a few weeks.<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Follow-up Imaging:<\/b> Regular scans (CT or ultrasound) will be scheduled to ensure the graft remains in place and the aneurysm is no longer at risk.<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Medication Management:<\/b> Your doctor may adjust your medications after the procedure. Continue to take them as prescribed.<\/li><\/ul><h2>What Can You Expect After EVAR?<\/h2><p>Recovery and long-term outcomes after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) vary from person to person. Factors such as your overall health, the size and location of the aneurysm, and how early it was treated can all influence your recovery.<\/p><p><b>Treating an aneurysm before it ruptures<\/b> is an important step in reducing the risk of serious complications. EVAR is a minimally invasive procedure that helps reinforce the weakened section of the aorta, and many patients are able to return to their usual activities over time with appropriate follow-up care.<\/p><p>Ongoing monitoring is an important part of recovery. Regular imaging is used to ensure the stent graft remains in position and continues to function as intended.<\/p><p>For more information on what to expect after treatment, you may wish to read our
