Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the early and midterm outcomes of endovascular repair of complex aortic aneurysm cases using the Multilayer Flow Modulator (MFM; Cardiatis, Isnes, Belgium) endograft in Germany.

Methods: A retrospective study including patients presenting with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), thoracic aortic aneurysm, or thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm treated with the MFM was conducted in Germany. Mortality and morbidity (in terms of spinal cord ischemia, visceral ischemia, and stroke) at 30 days postoperatively were evaluated.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficiency of totally percutaneous endovascular aortic aneurysm repair in a large cohort of patients and to define risk factors for failure with a 10-F vascular closure system.

Methods: A prospective study examined the feasibility and safety of percutaneous femoral artery closure with a single Prostar XL 10-F vascular closure device applied in conjunction with the preclose technique. Between January 2004 and December 2005, 535 consecutive patients were treated for aortic aneurysmal disease.
