A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study collects data on patients undergoing open surgical repair for complex aortic aneurysms at Mayo Clinic. It is a prospective, non-randomized study where the choice of prosthetic graft and surgical technique is determined by the surgeon's preference. Key metrics such as demographics, clinical presentation, intraoperative details, and postoperative outcomes will be recorded at various time points, including quality of life assessments using the SF-36 form. Follow-up will be conducted through office visits and mailed questionnaires to evaluate long-term outcomes.
