Short for Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair, TEVAR is often used to fix an aneurysm in the part of the aorta that is in your chest, also known as the thoracic area. The aorta is your body’s largest artery. It carries oxygen-rich blood from your heart to the rest of your body going from your heart through your chest and into your abdomen.

Definition. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat thoracic aortic aneurysms and other thoracic aortic conditions. It involves the insertion of a stent-graft through a small incision in the groin, which is then guided into the affected area of the aorta using imaging guidance.
Overview. Thoracic Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (TEVAR) is a recently developed treatment for patients with distal arch, descending or thoraco-abdominal aneurysms.
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is a minimally invasive procedure used to manage TAAs and aortic dissections. The main purpose of TEVAR is to prevent life-threatening aneurysm complications such as bursting (rupture) and tearing (dissection).
