Summary

The HERCULES trial is a Randomized controlled clinical trial designed to prospectively compare endosuture aneurysm repair (ESAR) to standard endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) clinical outcomes in treatment of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) in subjects having wide proximal aortic neck diameters (≥ 28mm and ≤ 32mm).

Conditions

  • Aortic Aneurysm, Abdominal

Interventions

DEVICE

endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) using the Endurant II/IIs stent graft system

treatment of AAA's with wide proximal neck diameters with Endurant II/IIs endograft system

DEVICE

endosuture aneurysm repair (ESAR) using Heli-FX EndoAnchor system

treatment of AAA's with wide proximal neck diameters with the Endurant II/IIs in conjunction with the Heli-FX EndoAnchor system
