Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) System for Abdominal Surgery Treatment - Medical / Health Care - Clinical Services
FromEndologix LLC
Regular Examinations with ultrasounds (if AAA is less than 5 cm) to monitor the condition. Abdominal Surgery (also called Open Repair) is performed under general anesthesia to access the aorta through an incision in your abdomen. The damaged section of the aorta is removed and a fabric tube called a graft is stitched in its place. The surgery usually takes 2-4 hours and requires a hospital stay of 5-7 days. Your recovery may take 3 months or longer.
