COVERED ENDOVASCULAR RECONSTRUCTION OF AORTIC BIFURCATIONPROCEDURES IN VASCULAR SURGERY

Abstract

The Covered Endovascular Reconstruction of Aortic Bifurcation (CERAB) is a minimally invasive technique that offers an innovative approach for the treatment of aortic bifurcation occlusive disease. The method involves the use of covered stent-grafts to restore the anatomical structure and blood flow in the affected area. CERAB is characterised by a high success rate, reduced risk of complications, and a short recovery time, making it a suitable choice for patients with chronic lower limb ischemia and high surgical risk. This article presents the technology, advantages, and limitations of the procedure, as well as an analysis of clinical outcomes in a group of patients. CERAB emerges as a promising method that could become the standard for treating complex vascular diseases, with the potential for long-term improvement in quality of life.
