    GENERAL GUIDELINESOptimize device planning and selection by a thorough pre-operative assessment of the aneurysm anatomy and surrounding vascu-latureinordertosizeforanappropriatedevicethatfitsthepatientsanatomy.Appropriatesizingofthedeviceremainstheresponsi-bility of the clinician Sizing of the aorta and of the iliac vessels must be determined before the implant takes place using a contrast enhanced CT and/or angiogram This information must be available during the implantation of the Anaconda Stent Graft SystemThe main body of the Anaconda Stent Graft System should be oversized by 10-20% and the total device length is recommended from the lowest renal artery to just above the origin of the internal iliac (hypogastric) artery bifurcation

    Itshouldbenotedthatwhendeployed,duetotheflexibilityoftheAnacondaStentGraftSystem,theoveralllengthofthedevicemay be shorter than expected due to angulated or tortuous anatomy

    STERILISATIONThe Anaconda Stent Graft System is sterilised by ethylene oxide; it is supplied sterile and must not be re-sterilised Any damage to the packaging may render the product non-sterile In the event of damage to the packaging, the product must not be used and should be returned to the supplier

    1.8 ANACONDA STENT GRAFT SYSTEM SIZING AND SELECTION

    Correct sizing and device selection is the responsibility of the implanting clinician A contrast enhanced CT scan which is no more than4monthsoldtodateofimplant,withaslicethicknessof3mm,shouldbeusedwhencaseplanning.

    The Anaconda Stent Graft System Sizing Charts are provided as a separate documents to the Anaconda Stent Graft System IFU, and can be found contained within the product packaging, to assist in the accurate selection of the Anaconda Stent Graft System components

    The Anaconda Stent Graft System Sizing Charts have been devised using the internal vessel diameter (ID) measurements; therefore no further calculations are required If the outside vessel diameters (OD) are measured then an allowance for the vessel wall diameter must be made before using this table for device selection

    The Anaconda and Anaconda ONE-LOK Stent Graft System Sizing Charts: Provide Anaconda Stent Graft System bifurcate body and iliac leg device sizing for optimal sealing Incorporates a 10%-

    20% oversize of ring stent diameter to aortic diameter No further oversize is required Vascutek Ltd has performed testing and recommends that a 10% oversize will provide optimum sealing of the excluded aneurysm

    Details the range of Anaconda Stent Graft System bifurcate body to iliac leg device compatibility Demonstrates the length of the iliac leg device necessary to achieve the required length for aneurysm exclusion Additional iliac leg length and increase or decrease in diameter should be selected in accordance with the appropriate Anaconda Stent Graft System Sizing Chart

    IdentifiesaccessvesselsuitabilityfortheAnacondaStentGraftSystem At the time of surgery, Vascutek Ltd recommends the clinician have available:

    o At least one extra Anaconda Stent Graft System of the same size as the one intended for implant in case the device is damaged during device preparation or implantation

  • 10

    o At least two extra Anaconda Stent Graft Systems, one a size smaller and one a size larger than the one intended for implant in case the original measurement of the vessel size has been over or under estimated

    1.9 PATIENT FOLLOW UPRegular follow-up including imaging of the Anaconda Stent Graft System should be performed in accordance with the standard of care of the treating hospital/clinician Patients should be monitored on a regular basis for aneurysm growth, occlusion of vessels within the treatment area, pulsatility, migration, endoleaks and device integrity

    1.10 MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING SAFETY

    The Anaconda Stent Graft System was determined to be MR conditional (ie according to information provided in the following document: American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) International, Designation: F 2503-08)

    Clinicians implanting the Anaconda Stent Graft System should follow Standard Practice for Marking Medical Devices and Other Items for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance Environment

    Non-clinical testing demonstrated that the Anaconda Stent Graft System is MR Conditional A patient with the Anaconda Stent Graft System can be scanned safely, immediately after placement under the following conditions:

    -Staticmagneticfieldof3-Teslaorless-Maximumspatialgradientfieldof720-Gauss/cmorless-Maximumwhole-body-averagedspecificabsorptionrate(SAR)of3-W/kgfor15minutesofscanning

    In non-clinical testing, the Anaconda Stent Graft System produced a temperature rise of less than or equal to 20C at a maximum wholebodyaveragedspecificabsorptionrate(SAR)of3-W/kgfor15-minutesofMRscanningina3-TeslaMRsystem(Excite,HDx,Software 14XM5, General Electric Healthcare, Milwaukee, WI)

    MR image quality may be compromised if the area of interest is in the same area or relatively close to the position of the Anaconda Stent Graft System

    1.11 DISPOSALAt the end of the procedure care must be taken to ensure safe disposal of the Anaconda Stent Graft System delivery system Each operating team must ensure local and national regulatory requirements for the disposal of contaminated clinical waste products is adhered to In the event of open surgical conversion after an Anaconda Stent Graft System implant, the surgeon and the surgical team perform-ingtheexplantmusttakecaretoavoidtheriskofpotentialinjuryresultingfromthesharpdevicefixationhookspositionedattheringstent peaks and valleys

    1.12 RETURNING A USED ANACONDA STENT GRAFT SYSTEM All explanted devices and/or delivery systems should be returned to Vascutek Ltd. for analysis as soon as possible.In the event of a used delivery system needing to be returned to Vascutek Ltd, it is a requirement to have the delivery system, and any other items used in the procedure to be returned in an explants box which can be obtained from Vascutek Ltds Quality Assur-ance Department If required, explant kits can be requested at complaints@vascutekcom or through your local distributor and will be provided for the retrieval and preservation of explanted stent grafts and/or delivery systems or other components for transit to Vascutek Ltd

    1.13 GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR THE PREPARATION OF ANACONDA STENT GRAFT SYSTEM A vascular surgical team must be available immediately in the event of need for emergency open surgical conversion It is recommended practice to ensure patients are heparinised for the duration of the endovascular procedure to avoid

    thromboembolism Do not kink or excessively bend the system after removal from the packaging AnacondaStentGraftSystemrepairofAbdominalAorticAneurysmrequiresaccuratefluoroscopicimaging.Useofthe

    SECTION 2: DEPLOYMENT PROCEDUREThese Instructions for Use must be used in conjunction with the Deployment Schematics located in Section 4.

    NEVER ADVANCE, MANIPULATE OR WITHDRAW EQUIPMENT IN THE VASCULATURE WITHOUT THE USE OF FLUOROS-COPY

    Step Stage 1a. Anaconda Bifurcate Body Delivery System Preparation

    1Remove the Anaconda bifurcate body delivery system from the sterile packaging and place it on a sterile table while the device is still in its clear plastic tray Take care not to excessively bend or kink the outer sheath whilst handling the delivery system

    2

    First,flushtheblueguidewireportwith30mlofsterileheparinisedsaline,thenturnoffthebluestopcock.Flushthewhiteflushingportwith30mlofsterileheparinisedsaline,andthenturnoffthewhitestopcockoftheflushingport Finally, open the blue stopcock of the guidewire port to allow passage of the guidewire

    3Wet along the full length of the delivery system sheath with sterile heparinized saline Ensure the sheath remains wet throughout the procedureThe Anaconda bifurcate body delivery system is now ready for use

    4 Ensure visualisation of the device markers and orientation of the device prior to insertion into the arterial system

    Step Stage 1b. Ipsilateral Guidewire Procedure

    1 Introduce a standard 0035 guidewire into the ipsilateral arterial access point using chosen standard access techniques

    2 Introduce a pigtail angiography catheter over the standard 0035 guidewire

    3 Remove the standard 0035 guidewire

    4 Consider performing angiography

    5 Introduce an appropriate ultrastiff 0035 guidewire through the angiography catheter

    6 Remove the angiography catheter over the ultrastiff 0035 guidewire

    Step Stage 1c. Anaconda Bifurcate Body Delivery System Introduction & Positioning

    1 Ensure that the Anaconda bifurcate body delivery system is prepared as instructed in the Anaconda bifurcate body delivery system preparation section (Stage 1a)

    2 Advance the Anaconda bifurcate body delivery system over the 0035 ultrastiff guidewire

    3 Ensurethecontralateralradiopaquemarkersareinthecorrectorientationbyvisualisingthemarkersunderfluoroscopy.See Anaconda Bifurcate Body diagram in Section 1.

    4 Advance the delivery system until the peaks of the proximal ring stent are positioned below the renal arteries with the contralateral radiopaque markers in the correct orientation Figure 1.

    5 Perform angiography with delivery system in situ to ensure aortic anatomy has not been altered by introduction of the delivery system Figure 1.

    6Stabilise the delivery system handle Gently retract the control collar fully to achieve a controlled deployment The control collar should be held in this fully retracted position At no point should you use excessive force. Slowly pull back the sheath slider completely to withdraw the outer sheath and expose the Anaconda bifurcate body Figure 2 & 3.

    7

    Gently advance the control collar fully forward until the Anaconda bifurcate body is positioned in the target landing zone At this point the bifurcate body remains attached to the delivery system Figure 4.CAUTION: It is not recommended to use balloons, snares or any other adjunctives whilst the Anaconda bi-furcate body is still attached to the Anaconda delivery system as they may interfere with the release of the control sutures.

    8 Consider performing angiography to verify the Anaconda bifurcate body is in the target landing zone

    9

    If repositioning is required the Anaconda delivery system handle gives full control of the top ring stents on the bifurcate body to allow for precise repositioning of the ring stent in the targeted landing zone To reposition the Anaconda bifurcate body:

    1 Close the ring stent by retracting the control collar fully2 Advance the system 3-4mm to ensure the stent graft hooks are clear of the aortic wall3 Hold the control collar in the fully retracted position and reposition the stent graft Ensure the peaks of the proximal ring stent are positioned below the renal arteries and the contralateral markers are in the correct orientation Figure 5.CAUTION: Avoid excessive rotation of the bifurcate body delivery system greater than 900 in either direction. Ensure the control collar is fully forward and the Anaconda bifurcate body is positioned in the target landing zone At this point the bifurcate body remains attached to the delivery system Figure 6.

  • 12

    10 Consider performing angiography to verify the Anaconda bifurcate body is now in the target landing zone

    11The Anaconda delivery system handle must now be stabilised, to ensure that the Anaconda delivery system does not rotate or move The Anaconda bifurcate body is now unsheathed but remains attached to the delivery system until Stage 5

    Step Stage 2. Cannulation of Contralateral Lumen of the Anaconda Bifurcate Body

    1 Stabilise the Anaconda bifurcate body delivery system throughout Stage 2

    2 Introduce a standard 0035 guidewire into the contralateral arterial access point

    3 Advance the 8Fr contralateral guiding catheter (CLGC) over the standard 0035 guidewire until the radiopaque tip is positioned close to the aortic bifurcation Figure 7.

    4

    Exchange the standard 0035 guidewire for the contralateral magnet guidewire of choice The standard contralateral magnetguidewire(CLMW)canbeusedinstraightanatomyandtheflexiblecontralateralmagnetguidewire(FCLMW)can be used in selected tortuous anatomy Note: If the FCLMW is used, exchange for an ultrastiff 0035 guidewire will be required prior to introduction of the con-tralateral iliac delivery system Note: The pre-loaded intrinsic magnet is designed to move on the intrinsic magnet guidewire Normally this will only occur in the intrinsic magnet guidewire withdrawal process However, under certain circumstances, the intrinsic magnet mould maymoveprematurelyifitmeetsanobstructionsuchasananatomicalledgeorfocalcalcification.Thewidenedsectionat the end of the intrinsic magnet guide wire prevents the magnet mould coming off the end of the guidewire

    5 Manipulate the torque device on the intrinsic magnet guidewire and the contralateral magnet guidewire until the two magnets connect Figure 7.

    6

    When the magnets have connected, carefully advance both magnet guidewires simultaneously until the magnets are visualised above the tip of the Anaconda bifurcate body nose cone Figure 8. Note: Ensure the ipsilateral magnet guidewire is not accidentally withdrawn from the bifurcate body during magnet wire manipulationNote: Ensure approximately 20mm of the intrinsic magnet guidewire remains distal to the delivery handle If the guidewire magnets disconnect during advancement through the Anaconda bifurcate body, care must be taken to reconnecttheguidewiremagnetsoutsidethebifurcatebody,2-3mmbelowthelevelofthecontralateralcannulationflareto minimise the risk of passing through a bifurcate body control sutures CAUTION: It is important to ensure the floppy tip of the intrinsic magnet guidewire remains above the level of the proximal ring stent at all times during the cannulation procedure

    Note: If the FCLMW has been used, it must be exchanged for an ultrastiff 0035 guidewire before advancing the contral-ateral iliac leg delivery system Re-insert the inner dilator through the contralateral guiding catheter and advance the contralateral guiding catheter to the tip of the bifurcate body nose cone over the FCLMW Remove inner dilator and the FCLMW and exchange for an ultrastiff 0035 guidewireNote: The magnet at the end of the FCLMW is a larger diameter than the inner dilator therefore removal of the wire should take place from the proximal end of the dilator

    Step Stage 3a. Anaconda Iliac Leg and Flared/Tapered Iliac Leg Preparation

    1Remove the Anaconda leg delivery system from the sterile packaging and place it on a sterile table while the device is still in its clear plastic tray Take care not to excessively bend or kink the outer sheath whilst handling the delivery system

    3Wet along the full length of the delivery system sheath with sterile heparinised saline Ensure the sheath remains wet throughout the procedure The Anaconda leg delivery system is now ready for use

    4 Ensure visualisation of the Anaconda leg markers and orientation of the device prior to insertion into the arterial system

  • 13

    Step Stage 3b. Contralateral Anaconda Iliac Leg or Flared/Tapered Iliac Leg Introduction & Deployment

    1 When working on the contralateral side, ensure the Anaconda bifurcate body is stabilised throughout Stage 3

    2

    Ensure that the leg delivery system is prepared as indicated in the leg delivery system preparation section 3a CAUTION: The control collar on any of the leg delivery systems will be fixed and cannot be used to reposition the leg device. The leg delivery system handle must be stabilised whilst unsheathing to prevent shortening of device and redundant fabric, increasing the risk of thrombus developing. The release wire must not be removed before the device is fully unsheathed as this could result in breakage of the release wire.

    3Advance the leg delivery system over the contralateral magnet guidewire CAUTION: If the FCLMW has been used, it must be exchanged for a ultrastiff 0.035 guidewire before advancing the leg delivery system. Figure 11a.

    4

    Visualise the radiopaque docking markers on the Anaconda bifurcate body and the proximal marker of the leg device Note:Flared/taperedlegshaveanadditionalradiopaquemarkerwhichidentifiesthetransitionzonebetweentheflared/tapered and straight segments of the leg device See Anaconda Iliac Leg diagrams in Section 1. Figures 11a & 11b.CAUTION: Do not retract the outer sheath until the position is satisfactory in relation to the Anaconda bifurcate body docking markers, i.e. when the proximal marker of the leg device is 2-3mm above the proximal radiopaque docking marker of the Anaconda bifurcate body.

    5 Considerperformingangiographytoconfirmthepositionofthelegdeviceisinthetargetlandingzone.CAUTION: the distal radiopaque marker should be at least 5mm proximal to the internal iliac artery if this is being preserved.

    6

    When the leg device is in the target landing zone, the leg delivery system handle must be stabilised as the leg device is unsheathed Figures 12a, 12b & 12c.Note: The leg device remains attached to the delivery system until the release wire is removed Ensure the blue nose cone of the sheath slider is docked completely at the delivery handle

    7 To fully release the leg device, pull the blue release clip and attached wire fully out of the delivery system handle The release wire should be pulled out distally, in line with the delivery system handle Figure 13.

    8 Resheath and retract the leg delivery system carefully over the guidewire Ensure the guidewire is not removed with the delivery system Figure 14.

    Note: if the CLMW has been used, it must be exchanged for an ultrastiff 0035 guidewire before insertion of any haemo-static sheath or catheters on the contralateral side Re-insert the contralateral guiding catheter with the inner dilator in place and advance over the CLMW to the level of the tip of the Anaconda bifurcate body nose cone Remove inner dilator and the CLMW and exchange for a stiff 0035 guidewire Note: the magnet at the end of the CLMW is a larger diameter than the inner dilator therefore removal of the wire should take place from the proximal end of the dilator when removed from the arterial system

    10 If required, insert an appropriate sized sheath to achieve haemostasis at the arterial access point

    11 See Stage 4 if an iliac leg extension is required

    Step Stage 4. Anaconda Iliac Leg or Flared/Tapered Iliac Leg Extension Introduction & Deployment

    1 When working on the contralateral side, ensure the Anaconda bifurcate body is stabilised throughout Stage 4

    2

    Prepare the leg delivery system as indicated in the leg delivery system preparation Stage 3a CAUTION: The control collar on any of the leg delivery systems will be fixed and cannot be used to reposition the leg device. The leg delivery system handle must be stabilised whilst unsheathing to prevent shortening of device and redundant fabric, or the risk of thrombus developing. The release wire must not be removed before the device is fully unsheathed as this could result in breakage of the release wire.

    3 Advance the leg delivery system over the ultrastiff 0035 guidewire

    4

    Visualise the radiopaque markers on the proximal and distal end of the leg extension Figure 15.Note:Flared/taperedlegdeviceshaveanadditionalradiopaquemarkerwhichidentifiesthetransitionzonebetweentheflared/taperedandstraightsegmentsof the iliac legdevice.See Anaconda Iliac Leg diagrams in Section 1 and Figure 16.

    Considerperformingangiographytoconfirmthattheproximalanddistalmarkersofthelegextensiondeviceareinthetarget landing zone Figure 17. CAUTION: The transition marker on the leg extension device must not be positioned proximal to the distal marker of the leg device into which it is being docked. The flared/tapered segment of the extension should not be contained within the overlap zone. Figure 18. CAUTION: Do not retract the outer sheath until there is a minimum overlap of 20mm between the leg device and leg extension device. CAUTION: The distal radiopaque marker should be at least 5mm proximal to the internal iliac artery if this is being preserved.

    When the leg device is in the target landing zone, the leg delivery system handle must be stabilised as the leg device is unsheathed Figure 19 & 20.Note: The leg device remains attached to the delivery system until the release wire is removed Ensure the sheath slider is retracted completely into the delivery system handle

    7 To fully release the leg device, pull the blue release clip and attached wire fully out of the delivery system handle The release wire should be pulled out distally, in line with the delivery system handle Figure 13.

    8 Re-sheath and retract the leg delivery system carefully over the guidewire Ensure the guidewire is not removed with the delivery system Figure 14.

    9

    Note: If the CLMW is still in situ, it must be exchanged for an ultrastiff 0035 guidewire before insertion of any haemo-static sheath or catheters Re-insert the contralateral guiding catheter with the inner dilator in place and advance over the CLMW to the level of the tip of the Anaconda bifurcate body nose cone This will minimise the risk of passing any wires through the bifurcate body control cord Remove inner dilator and the CLMW and exchange for a stiff 0035 guidewire Note: the magnet at the end of the CLMW is a larger diameter than the inner dilator therefore removal of the wire should take place from the proximal end of the dilator when removed from the arterial system

    10 If required, insert an appropriate sized sheath to achieve haemostasis at the arterial access point

    Step Stage 5. Deployment of the Anaconda Bifurcate Body

    1Verify that the proximal ring stent of the Anaconda bifurcate body remains in the target landing zone and is positioned below the level of the renal arteries Consideringperformingangiographytoaidverification.

    2If minor proximal or distal repositioning of the Anaconda bifurcate body is required, see Stage 1c, Step 9 Figure 21. CAUTION: Following any minor repositioning, ensure adequate overlap of bifurcate body/leg and leg/leg exten-sions is maintained.

    3If repositioning was required, ensure the control collar is fully forward and the Anaconda bifurcate body is positioned in the target landing zone At this point the bifurcate body remains attached to the delivery system Figure 22.Consider performing angiography to verify the Anaconda bifurcate body is in the target landing zone

    4 StabilisetheAnacondabifurcatebodydeliverysystemwhenthefinalpositionisconfirmed.

    THE NEXT STEPS WILL FULLY DEPLOY THE BIFURCATE BODY AND NO FURTHER REPOSITIONING IS POSSIBLE

    5Pull the white release clip and attached wire fully out of the delivery system handle CAUTION: This eliminates the ability to open and close the ring stent. The release wire should be pulled out distally, in line with the delivery system handle Figure 23.

    6To fully deploy the Anaconda bifurcate body from its delivery system, pull the blue release clip and attached wire fully out of the delivery system handle This releases the Anaconda bifurcate body from its delivery system The release wire should be pulled out distally, in line with the delivery system handle Figure 24.

    THE BIFURCATE BODY IS NOW FULLY DEPLOYED AND NO FURTHER REPOSITIONING IS POSSIBLE

    7

    Resheath and retract the Anaconda bifurcate body delivery system carefully over the guidewire Ensure the guidewire is not removed with the delivery system Figure 25.CAUTION: If any resistance is experienced during the removal of the Anaconda bifurcate body delivery sys-tem, stop the procedure immediately. An additional stage may be required for safe removal of the delivery system. Please see additional information in Section 3 Bailout Procedures Section 3.1.7.

    8 Leave the ultrastiff guidewire in place for advancement of the ipsilateral iliac leg delivery system

    Step Stage 6. Anaconda Ipsilateral Iliac Leg or Flared/Tapered Iliac Leg Introduction & Deployment

    1

    Prepare the leg delivery system as indicated in the leg delivery system preparation Stage 3a CAUTION: The control collar on any of the leg delivery systems will be fixed and cannot be used to reposition the leg device. The leg delivery system handle must be stabilised whilst unsheathing to prevent shortening of device and redundant fabric, increasing the risk of thrombus developing. The release wire must not be removed before the device is fully unsheathed as this could result in breakage of the release wire.

    2 Advance the leg delivery system over the ipsilateral guidewire

    3

    Visualise the radiopaque docking markers on the Anaconda bifurcate body and the proximal marker of the leg device Figure 26.Flared/taperedlegshaveanadditionalradiopaquemarkerwhichidentifiesthetransitionzonebetweentheflared/taperedand straight segments of the leg device CAUTION: Do not retract the outer sheath until the position is satisfactory in relation to the Anaconda bi-furcate body docking markers, i.e. when the proximal marker of the leg device is 2-3mm above the proximal radiopaque docking marker of the Anaconda bifurcate body.

    Considerperformingangiographytoconfirmthepositionof the legdevicedistalradiopaquemarker inrelationtothetarget landing zone CAUTION: The distal radiopaque marker should be at least 5mm proximal to the internal iliac artery if this is being preserved.

    5When the leg device is in the target landing zone, the leg delivery system handle must be stabilised as the leg device is unsheathed The leg device remains attached to the delivery system until the release wire is removed Ensure the sheath slider is docked completely at the delivery handle Figure 27.

    6 To fully release the leg device, pull the blue release clip and attached wire fully out of the delivery system handle The release wire should be pulled out distally, in line with the delivery system handle Figure 13.

    7 Resheath and retract the leg delivery system carefully over the guidewire Ensure the guidewire is not removed with the delivery system Figure 14.

    8 If required, insert an appropriate sized sheath to achieve haemostasis at the arterial access point

    9 SeeStage4ifafurtheriliaclegorflared/taperediliaclegextensionisrequired.

    Step Stage 7. Smoothing of the Anaconda Bifurcate Body Stent Graft Fabric and Smoothing & Modelling of the Iliac Legs

    1It is recommended to smooth the stent graft fabric of the docking zone of the Anaconda bifurcate body by using an appropriate sized compliant or non-compliant balloon Note: Please refer to individual manufacturers guidelines for size selection, preparation, and use of all balloons

    2It is also recommended to smooth and model the full length of the iliac legs and overlaps using an appropriate sized compliant or non-compliant balloon Note: Please refer to individual manufacturers guidelines for size selection, preparation, and use of all balloons

    3 Ensureanyballoonsarecompletelydeflatedpriortoremovaltoavoidcatchingthestentgraftmaterial.

    Step Stage 8. Completion Angiography and Verification of Stent Graft Placement and Seal

    1

    At the completion of the procedure perform angiography to assess the stent graft for proximal and distal endoleaks, and to verify position of the implanted stent graft in relation to the abdominal aortic aneurysm and renal arteries Figure 28.Note:Ifdeemedclinicallysignificant;leaksattheattachmentofconnectionsitesshouldbetreatedusinganappropriatesized compliant balloon to remodel the stent graft against the vessel wall Note:Clinicallysignificantendoleaks thatcannotbecorrectedbyballooningmaybe treatedbyaddingaorticor iliacextension components to the previously placed stent graft components CAUTION: Any endoleak left during the implantation procedure must be carefully monitored after implantation.

    2 Remove all ancillary devices prior to repairing the entry site

    3 Repair the entry site with standard closure techniques

    4Regular follow-up including imaging of the Anaconda Stent Graft System should be performed in accordance with the standard of care of the treating hospital/clinician Patients should be monitored on a regular basis for aneurysm growth, occlusion of vessels within the treatment area, pulsatility, migration, endoleaks and device integrity
