Long-term results after artery repair surgery
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how well people do in the long term after having surgery or a minimally invasive procedure to fix narrowed, bulging, or torn arteries in the belly area. It aims to understand what affects recovery and future health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a disease that narrows, bulges, or tears your arteries (like hardening of the arteries, an aneurysm, or a dissection).
- The problem is in one or more of the arteries that supply blood to your gut, kidneys, or other organs (celiac, mesenteric, or renal arteries).
- You had a procedure to restore blood flow, either through open surgery or a less invasive catheter method, whether planned or as an emergency.
- If you are joining the part of the study that looks back at past procedures, your surgery was done up to 20 years ago, and you have follow-up imaging or reports from after that time.
- You must have at least one follow-up imaging or medical report available for review.
- For the past-procedure group, that follow-up must be at least three years after your surgery.

This study tests whether repairing an enlarged or tearing (dissection) thoracic aorta using a catheter-based procedure can be safer for people who are high-risk for open surgery. It uses specialized stent grafts placed through blood vessels to seal the problem and prevent complications.
This study looks at how the heart and large arteries change after endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the main artery in your belly). It may help doctors understand if the repair improves heart function and vessel stiffness over time.
This study follows patients who had a stent placed in their chest or belly aorta through the leg artery to see what discomfort or symptoms they may have over time. It helps doctors better understand how patients feel after this common procedure.
This study tests if a structured heart rehab program helps people recover better after surgery to fix an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the main belly artery). It aims to improve fitness and heart health.
This study looks at how the heart changes after a minimally invasive procedure to fix an aortic aneurysm. It uses imaging to track heart function and structure over time.
This trial tests a special stent called Derivo to treat aneurysms in arteries of the abdomen. It aims to see if this device safely blocks blood flow to the aneurysm and helps prevent rupture.
