Aortic Aneurysm Repair
When there is an abdominal bulge in the walls of artery it is known as Aneurysm. The thick and muscular walls of arteries can withstand a lot of pressure. Sometimes, a weak area develops in the walls of the artery, which shoves the pressure outside creating a bulge or ballooned area called an “Aneurysm”.
Aneurysms occur most commonly in the aorta. It is the largest artery in the body. It carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body parts through these vessels. Aortic aneurysms can occur in two main places:
Care after the procedure
During the hospital stay, you may: Be in the intensive care unit (ICU), where you will be scrutinized.
- Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms: It occurs in the portion of the aorta that passes through the middle of the lower abdomen.
- Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms: It occurs in that portion of the aorta which passes through the chest cavity.
Success rate
The success rate of stent grafts to treat Thoracic aortic aneurysms has risen to 90 percent. Although the recovery time is reduced by endovascular procedure to less than two weeks as opposed to one to two months with open abdominal repair, it still carries risk. Patients who have repair of their aortic aneurysms with stent grafts will need to be examined every six months initially, to ensure that no problems are initiating. One need to stay for 3-5 days in the hospital after the surgery, depending on the type of procedure adopted. Most often, the recovery from this procedure is swift and comparatively painless than with open surgery.Care after the procedure
During the hospital stay, you may: Be in the intensive care unit (ICU), where you will be scrutinized.
