Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Endovascular aortic repair is a field of continuous evolution, with new devices and techniques constantly im-proving the technical success and clinical outcomes of patients with diseases affecting the entire aorta, including iliac bifurcations. Custom-made and off-the-shelf solutions have increased the availability of endograft configurations, providing a more individualized approach, while the widespread use of surgeon-modified endografts mirrors the development of endovascular materials and techniques. At the same time, newer open and hybrid solutions provide a reliable treatment choice in healthy patients. However, the expansion of the targeted population and inclusion of increasingly demanding cases may affect aortic repair outcomes, leading to complications that may affect early- and long-term survival, making the prevention of complications a significant step in improving aortic repair performance. In addition, the nature and extent of the disease and patients’ baseline features seem to also play a significant role, setting higher demands in daily practice in terms of diagnosis, planning, and decision making.

This Special Issue is a chance to share the available experience and expertise on current practices in aortic disease management.
