Book cover Vascular Surgery

Abstract

Nowadays aortic aneurysms repair are performed by two techniques: open and endovascular surgery. New technologies are constantly transforming and improving the daily surgical and clinical practice. However, caution and criticism should be adopted when we intend to incorporate these innovations in our current practice. Solid scientific studies must prove their safety and effectiveness over the years.
