Abstract

Open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is an independently predictive factor for early mortality in patients aged >80 years. Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has been shown to have lower early mortality rates than open repair in octogenarians. Fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair (FEVAR) is an alternative to open repair to treat patients with complex abdominal aortic aneurysms that cannot be repaired with standard EVAR. We examined how age >80 years affects the outcomes of patients undergoing FEVAR.
