Aneurysm repair is a surgical procedure performed to treat an aneurysm, which occurs when a section of a blood vessel becomes weakened and bulges outward. Aneurysms can develop in arteries throughout the body, including the brain, heart, and abdomen. If left untreated, an aneurysm may rupture, leading to life-threatening complications.

Surgical repair involves either open surgery or endovascular techniques to seal or remove the bulging section of the artery. The specific approach depends on the location and size of the aneurysm.

Aneurysm repair is critical for preventing rupture and managing the associated risks, improving long-term outcomes and preserving organ function.
