Stent-graft placement for aneurysms is a procedure used to treat aneurysms by placing a stent graft within the affected artery to seal off the aneurysm and restore normal blood flow. The procedure is typically performed for aortic aneurysms or other large vessel aneurysms to prevent rupture, which can be life-threatening.
This minimally invasive technique is preferred over traditional surgery due to its lower risk, faster recovery, and ability to treat high-risk patients who are not candidates for open surgery.
