New Tools for Endovascular Repair of Aortic Aneurysms

Host: Mark Nolan Hill, MD Guest: Michael Marin, MD Research data indicates an increasingly significant percentage of all elective aortic aneurysm repairs are endovascular procedures. How are new tools for endovascular repair improving our ability to provide minimally invasive options to our patients? How common are subsequent re-interventions following endovascular repair, and what is the key to finding success in this secondary procedure? Dr. Michael Marin, professor and chair of surgery at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, tells host Dr. Mark Nolan Hill how we are addressing the biggest challenges in endovascular aortic repair.
