Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the registry is to compare the surgical and endovascular approaches to the treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms.

Description:

The purpose of the study is to compare the surgical and endovascular approaches to the treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. In particular, the study aims at comparing the short- and mid-term mortality, morbidity and reintervention rate after open surgery or endovascular repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms in comparable cohorts of patients according to preoperative characteristics and evaluating the cost-effectiveness of both techniques, according to the EUnetHTA core model.

The study results will contribute to the creation of a HTA Report regarding endovascular technology to treat thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms which will be evaluated by the appropriate Health Authorities.

• Gender: All
• Age group: 18 Years and older

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients affected by a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm who received an open surgical repair (aneurysmectomy and aortic reconstruction with a surgical graft) or endovascular repair (with off-the-shelf or custom-made Fenestrated/Branched-Endovascular Aortic Repair - F/BEVAR) between January 2013 and June 2021 at San Raffaele Hospital (Vascular Surgery Unit)

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients treated with a hybrid approach (open surgical retrograde revascularization of renovisceral arteries followed by aneurysm exclusion with endograft)

• Patients treated with other endovascular techniques besides fenestrated or branched technology (e.g., physician-modified endografts, parallel grafts).

• Patients with a juxtarenal or pararenal aortic aneurysm

• Patients treated with F/BEVAR for a visceral artery patch aneurysm after open thoracoabdominal repair
