What is Stent Graft?

An endovascular stent graft is a tube composed of fabric supported by a metal mesh called a stent. It can be used for a variety of conditions involving the blood vessels, but most commonly to reinforce a weak spot in an artery called an aneurysm.

  • Pain or discomfort in the abdomen or back.
  • Pulsating mass in the abdomen.
  • Fever or elevated body temperature.
  • Rapid heartbeat or changes in heart rate.
  • Weakness or fatigue.
  • Shortness of breath.
  • Loss of consciousness.
  • Fracture of the stent graft.
  • Infection.
  • Rupture of the aneurysm or aorta.
  • Blood leakages around the stent graft.
  • Blockage of the flow of blood through the stent graft.
  • Movement of the stent graft from its original site of placement.

Problems that have been encountered with endovascular stent graft repair include vessel injury caused by the delivery catheter, intravascular migration of the graft, strut fracture of the stent frame, postoperative paraplegia, and endovascular leak at the graft ends, between graft segments, or from segmental arteries.

Complications that can happen after endovascular aneurysm repair include leaking of blood around the graft, the graft moving away from its initial placement and the stent breaking. Complications that are rare but serious include paralysis, delayed rupture of the aneurysm or infection. Other risks may be possible.

Tapered stent graft and restrictive bare stent can prevent distal stent graft-induced new entry, which happened after thoracic endovascular aortic repair in patients with type B aortic dissection.

How is it treated?

Treatment for acute myeloid leukemia is vital. It varies with the patient and stage of the disease. Treatment options include

A stent graft is sent along the catheter to the aneurysm. The stent graft is a tube made of a thin metal mesh (the stent), covered with a thin polyester fabric (the graft). This stent graft is opened inside the aorta and fastened in place. The stent graft stays in place, and blood flows through it.
