Endovascular aneurysm repair
Endovascular aneurysm repair has been studied in 16 papers since 2021: 15 observational studies in people, 1 review; 1 in the past year. The newest paper, Mar 30, 2026: “Impact of stent materials and hemodynamic changes after endovascular aneurysm repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm”.
“One month after EVAR, cf-PWV significantly increased”
None of its findings points the other way.

Aneurysm-related death
no changein humans1
Endovascular aneurysm repair has no effect on aneurysm-related death in humans (2.3% vs. 2.3%).
“aneurysm-related death (ARD) rates during follow up (2.3% vs. 2.3%, respectively) were similar between the groups.”

Endovascular aneurysm repair has no effect on overall survival in humans (30-day mortality 0 vs. 1.2%).
“Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that estimated overall survival and freedom from ARD were also similar.”
