Fenestrated/Branched Endovascular Aortic Repair in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

Renal function impairment is a common complication after open repair of complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) and thoracoabdominal aneurysms (TAAA). Fenestrated/branched endovascular aneurysm repair (F-BEVAR) has emerged as an alternative to open repair with improved perioperative outcomes. The effects of chronic kidney disease (CKD) on renal function after F-BEVAR has not been established. The purpose of this study was to assess renal perioperative outcomes and renal function deterioration after F-BEVAR in patients with CKD.
