Summary

This study tests a minimally invasive procedure to treat large aneurysms in the aorta (the main artery) in the chest and belly area. Instead of open surgery, doctors place a fabric-covered metal tube (stent-graft) inside the aneurysm to seal it off. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and works well for people with aneurysms at least 5.5-6 cm wide or growing quickly. About 250 participants will be followed for long-term success.
