Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) using the Ovation™ Device
It involves placement of the Ovation™ Device (a modular stent-graft device) for repair of the infrarenal AAA. The device seals the proximal aortic neck by using polymer to infuse the O-rings in order to achieve a customised seal without exerting outward radial force to maintain the seal.
The approximate duration of intervention is 2-3 hours which is similar to usual EVAR with other modular stent-graft systems.
The intervention will be performed by the principle investigator (PI). The PI is a Vascular Surgeon.
