Minimally invasive surgery techniques replacing endoaneurysmorrhaphy > Laparoscopic permanent repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm AAA

Monday, September 3, 2007

Is elective surgical treatment of AAA the most reasonable approach to prevent the mortality associated with this disorder? Can abdominal aortic aneurysms be treated successfully by elective surgical replacement with synthetic graft in a laparoscopic procedure? Are the laparoscopic techniques well refined and ready for widespread adaptation?

Over the last decade, minimally invasive surgical techniques have […]
