Study Arms (2)

Group 1

NO INTERVENTION

30 patients/5 vascular surgery residents The residents of the last year of vascular surgery will perform the procedure under supervision of a senior surgeon

Group 2

EXPERIMENTAL

30 patients/5 vascular surgery residents Patients will have their aneurysm impressed by a 3D printing. The senior vascular surgeon and the residents of this group will be able to practice the procedure in the model as many times as they wish before the surgery. After the training, the EVAR will be performed according to the routine of the hospital.
