Overview

Your aorta, the main artery carrying blood from your heart, can weaken and bulge over time. This bulge, called an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), can be dangerous if it ruptures or leaks. While some AAAs never cause problems, a ruptured AAA can lead to life-threatening bleeding. In some cases, an AAA can also disrupt blood flow to your organs, causing stroke or kidney failure. Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent complications from AAA.

Treatments

The best treatment for AAA depends on several factors, including the size of the aneurysm, your age, family history, and overall health. The main goal is to prevent a rupture, which can cause life-threatening bleeding. The size of the aneurysm often determines the treatment approach.

Medical Monitoring for Small AAAs

Open Abdominal Surgery

Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR).

Surgical Approaches:

Open Abdominal Surgery:
- A surgical cut is made in the abdomen.
- The weakened section of the aorta is replaced with a synthetic graft.
- Hospital stays are typically longer (over a week) with a slower recovery time (several weeks).
- While highly effective (94-97% success rate), it carries higher risks of complications like infection, bleeding, and stroke.
- The benefits include a lower chance of graft problems and long-term durability.
Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR):
- A minimally invasive procedure using a catheter inserted through the groin.
- The graft is guided through the catheter to the weakened area and deployed.
- Patients typically require shorter hospital stays (2-4 days) and recover faster (weeks/months).
- EVAR has a high success rate (around 98%) with lower complication risks compared to open surgery.
- However, there’s a chance the graft might shift, requiring follow-up scans and potential additional procedures.
- EVAR offers the advantages of being less invasive with a quicker recovery.

Choosing the Right Treatment:

Your doctor will discuss the most suitable treatment based on your specific condition, considering factors like aneurysm size, location, your overall health, and potential risks associated with each surgery.
