What are the outcomes of aneurysm repair?

Professor Alun Davies describes the outcomes of both endovascular repair and open surgery. He explains that the reintervention rate (the risk of having another procedure) for endovascular repair is higher because of complications. Endovascular repair has been outcomes after surgery, but open repair is more favourable a few years down the line. These are important factors to consider with your clinician when deciding which option to go for.
