The Prosthesis Implant Current Status in the Treatment of the Aneurysm ofthe Abdominal Aorta


Abstract in English

The concept of Intravascular Technology is an advanced stage of the Medical vascular diseases therapy due to the easy usage by surgeon and the little rescue it involves on patients comparing to the traditional surgery. In this study, we have discussed one of the most modern methods of the Treatment of the Aneurysm of the Abdominal Aorta using the internal prosthesis through the artery. This has been achieved via the femoral artery. We also identified the prosthesis patterns and the used methods to get through those arteries as well as identifying the main indications and the importance of selecting the suitable patients regarding their age and health status. We also carried out a comparison among many International studies involving the development and usage of this technology worldwide. Indeed this therapy involves high material cost but the results prove its importance in rescuing many patients' lives that are classified to be in high rescue within traditional surgery.
