Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair - Open at Central & Northeastern PA Chambersburg
An abdominal aortic aneurism is when your abdominal aorta is weak, causing it to expand or bulge. The most common place for an aneurysm to occur is in the abdominal aorta, and they are twice as common in men than women. This can be repaired using surgery called an open aneurysm repair, during which time the problem portion of your aorta will be replaced with a manmade graft. This procedure involves four to seven days' hospital stay and is far more invasive than an endovascular stent graft.
