In the last twenty years, endovascular technology has revolutionized the management of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) because of its less invasiveness.
Endovascular stent grafting is a newer form of treatment for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm that is less invasive than open surgery. The technology has evolved from large profile endoprothesis but requires open-surgery to low profile endoprothesis implantable percutaneously (PEVAR).
Furthermore, the development of different type of endoprothesis and extension has allowed the treatment of more complex abdominal aorta aneurysm.
This second websymposium describes the latest low profile endovascular prothesis and its use by our Italian colleagues.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
This webinar is an educational event supported by Cordis Corporation, and is intended for Healthcare Professionals in Europe Middle East and Africa.
The use of the INCRAFT® AAA Stent-Graft System requires that physicians be specially trained in endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair techniques, including experience with high resolution fluoroscopy and radiation safety. Cordis Corporation will provide training specific to the INCRAFT® AAA Stent-Graft System.
The INCRAFT® System is currently approved for investigational device use only in the U.S. and Japan and is being studied in a global pivotal clinical study in the U.S. and Japan called the INSPIRATION Trial, which completed enrollment in 2013.

gerson U. Great work! What make is your angio machine and table? What is the failure rate of the pre-closure device?
Paulo P. Dears Drs. Giovanni Torsello and Arne Schwindt, Congratulations for the excellent presentiation ! Regards, Paulo Ocke Reis (Brazil,RJ)
Patricio N. Can you expect a tipe 1 endoleak in this case?
Arne S. Dear Gerson Uanivi, we worked in a Siemens Hybrid OR with a AXIUM ARTIS Machine, The Preclose thechnique has a learning curve, in our experience the success rate of sugeons with 20+ cases is 95%. All the best Arne Schwindt
Arne S. Dear Patricio Navarro, both patients received a post OR CT, Patient one has a type II EL via the IMA, Patient two has a verry small type II EL via lumbar L5, no type IA or B EL were detected. I wish you a happy 2017 Arne Schwindt
Elias K. good evening, i was a few days late watching the video.
For up to 18F puncture sites, would you use one prostar or two perclose devices and why?
Arne S. Dear Dr. K.,
in our setting we use one Prostar device for all large access procedures (EVAR, TEVAR, FEVAR...). The reason is that using one device instead of two is a bit less time consuming. However using two Proglides instead seems to be an alternative. There is one publication showing superiority of Proglide versus Prostar ( if I recall right recently in Eurointervention) for TAVI but you could argue that for cardiologists Priglide is more comfortable because the slipknot is inherited whilst for Prostar it has to be fascilitated by the user. For my taste both strategies are good as long as you got a good training on the device.
All the best
Arne Schwindt
