Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Technical success

    correct graft deployment without any unintentional occlusion of the aortic visceral branches and/or both hypogastric arteries, with aneurysm exclusion confirmed by the intraoperative angiography, without signs of type I/III endoleak a conversion to open surgery.

    90 days

  • Technical success

    correct graft deployment without any unintentional occlusion of the aortic visceral branches and/or both hypogastric arteries, with aneurysm exclusion confirmed by the intraoperative angiography, without signs of type I/III endoleak a conversion to open surgery.

    1 year

  • Technical success

    correct graft deployment without any unintentional occlusion of the aortic visceral branches and/or both hypogastric arteries, with aneurysm exclusion confirmed by the intraoperative angiography, without signs of type I/III endoleak a conversion to open surgery.

    5 years

  • Clinical success

    Successful deployment of the endovascular device at the intended location without death as a result of aneurysm-related treatment, type I or III endoleak, or graft infection or thrombosis, aneurysm expansion (\>5 mm), aneurysm rupture, or conversion to open repair. Moreover, the presence of graft dilatation of 20% or more by diameter, graft migration, or a failure of device integrity.

  • Clinical success

    Successful deployment of the endovascular device at the intended location without death as a result of aneurysm-related treatment, type I or III endoleak, or graft infection or thrombosis, aneurysm expansion (\>5 mm), aneurysm rupture, or conversion to open repair. Moreover, the presence of graft dilatation of 20% or more by diameter, graft migration, or a failure of device integrity.

Study Population

All consecutive eligible patients submitted to EVAR by Alto Endovascular AAA implantation will be included in analysis. Patients will be submitted to EVAR procedures on the basis of their own preferences, anatomical features, and operators experience.

You may qualify if:

  • Elective AAA patients that should be treated by standard EVAR, according to Endologix Alto endograft device's Instructions For Use;
  • Patient is willing to comply with specified follow-up evaluations at the specified times for the duration of the study;
  • Patient is \>18 years old;
  • Patient, or their legal representative, understands the nature of the procedure and provides written informed consent, prior to enrollment in the study.

You may not qualify if:

  • EVAR performed in Urgent/Emergent setting;
  • Patients treated outside Endologix Alto endograft device's Instructions For Use;
  • Patients refusing treatment;
  • Patients for whom antiplatelet therapy, anticoagulants or antihypertensive drug are contraindicated;
  • Patients with a history of prior life-threatening contrast medium reaction;
  • Life expectancy of less than follow-up period.
  • AAA: abdominal aortic aneurysm; EVAR: abdominal endovascular aneurysm
