ABSTRACT
Since the introduction of endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair endovascular
aneurysm repair (EVAR) by Parodi (1) in 1991, this technique has continued to gain popularity
and widespread acceptance by the vascular surgical community. This has mainly been due to
the accepted perioperative benefits of elective EVAR on morbidity and mortality. This chapter
presents the results of elective EVAR in terms of perioperative mortality and longer-term
mortality and morbidity rates.
