Objective:
By using a guidewire fixator, the distal guidewire position can be secured in an artery. This new principle enables a method for fenestrated endovascular aortic repair where the connection between the aortic branches and the stent graft fenestrations is made before inserting and deploying the stent graft.
Methods:
This is conducted using a fenestrated stent graft with preloaded catheters, through which the prepositioned and distally secured guidewires from the branches are inserted.
Results:
This report covers the method when implementing a single fenestration stent graft in pig.
Conclusions:
Successful tests with single and dual fenestrated grafts have been conducted in pigs.
