Tips to Ensure Optimal Ring Apposition of the Ovation Stent Graft in Challenging Necks of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

The Ovation stent graft has been recently introduced for endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Its sealing mechanism is based on a pair of polymer-filled inflatable rings. Based on our experience, we describe useful tips to optimize the use of Ovation in thrombosed or severely angulated...
