What the procedure involves.
Aortic aneurysm repair prevents life-threatening rupture by reinforcing or replacing the weakened aortic wall through open surgical graft replacement or minimally invasive endovascular stent-graft (EVAR/TEVAR). China's major cardiac surgery centers perform both approaches with advanced hybrid operating rooms and experienced vascular teams. The procedure is performed at a fraction of Western costs with comparable outcomes at high-volume institutions.
Step by step.
CT Angiography
High-resolution CTA to measure aneurysm size, anatomy, and determine suitability for endovascular vs open repair
Surgical Repair
Endovascular stent-graft deployment through femoral arteries or open surgical replacement with synthetic graft
Critical Care
ICU monitoring of hemodynamics, renal function, and distal perfusion; early mobilization for EVAR patients
Surveillance Program
Regular CT imaging follow-up to monitor graft integrity, endoleak detection, and aneurysm sac regression
- Prevents fatal aneurysm rupture
- Endovascular option offers minimally invasive recovery
- Advanced hybrid ORs enable complex repairs
- Significant cost savings compared to Western countries
- Endoleak requiring re-intervention
- Spinal cord ischemia (paraplegia risk)
- Renal impairment from contrast or clamping
- Graft infection (rare but serious)
