Abstract
The evolution of endovascular therapy over the past two to three decades has been intimately intertwined with the introduction of new devices and technologies. While a therapeutic concept may appear applicable to treat a specific pathologic condition, without the proper tools, even a great idea may never reach clinical application. Thoracic aortic endografting for aneurysmal disease is a classic example of this situation.
