Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are patients over 18 years old who have been treated with the semibranch stentgraft.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have not undergone treatment with the semibranch stentgraft may not receive any benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational registry aims to assess the effectiveness of the semibranch in branched endovascular aortic repair. It focuses on evaluating the patency of the semibranch and the feasibility of the technique concerning cannulation and stent-grafting. The study collects data from patients who have been treated with the semibranch stentgraft, providing insights into its performance and potential improvements in treatment outcomes.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this could lead to improved treatment options for patients with aortic aneurysms.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is relatively novel, similar studies have shown promise in evaluating new endovascular techniques.
