Ascending Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (aTEVAR): The ESVS 2025 Consensus Statement
Thursday, 2 July, 2026
In this episode, Professor Santi Trimarchi discusses the ESVS Clinical Practice Consensus Statement on Ascending Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (aTEVAR). He provides a comprehensive scientific overview of the document, helping listeners gain a concise yet thorough understanding of its key recommendations and expert consensus.During the episode, we explore the unique anatomical challenges of the ascending aorta for endovascular repair, patient selection, and situations in which conservative management may be preferred over intervention. We also discuss landing zone requirements, stent graft sizing strategies, vascular access considerations, cardiac output control during stent graft deployment, contraindications for aTEVAR, the prevention and management of endoleaks, post-procedural surveillance, and future research priorities.For a detailed review of the recommendations and supporting evidence, listeners are encouraged to consult the full consensus document.References:Trimarchi S, Czerny M, Haulon S, van Herwaarden JA, de Kort JF, Roselli EE, Schermerhorn ML, Upchurch GR Jr, Wanhainen A, on behalf of the ESVS Guidelines Steering Committee.
