About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm focused on measuring Abdominal aortic aneurysm, AAA, randomised controlled trial, Endovascular repair, conventional open repair

Eligibility Criteria

undefined - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Asymptomatic, infrarenal AAA that requires surgery
  • Adequate infrarenal neck
  • Other aortic-iliac anatomical configuration suitable for EVAR according to the criteria of the device to be used

  • Signed informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • ruptured AAA or symptomatic AAA, which requires emergency surgery
  • maximum aneurysm diameter< 5.0 cm
  • suprarenal AAA
  • Inflammatory AAA (more than minimal wall thickening)
  • infrarenal neck unsuitable for endovascular fixation or aortic-iliac anatomic configuration otherwise unsuitable for EVAR according to criteria of the device to be used
  • bilateral retroperitoneal incision required for EVAR
  • sacrifice of both hypogastric arteries required
  • anatomical variations, i.e. horseshoe-kidney, arteries requiring reimplantation
  • patient unsuitable for laparotomy
  • administration of contrast agent not possible: proved, severe systemic reaction to contrast agent
  • active infection present
  • transplantation-patients
  • limited life expectation due to other illness (< 2 year)
  • non-iatrogenic bleeding diathesis

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The purpose of this trial is to assess whether the new endovascular repair technique of the abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is an adequate substitute of the conventional AAA repair.
    Detailed Description
    After the introduction of endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), both benefits and drawbacks of this new technique have been reported. To assess whether the new technique is an adequate substitute of conventional AAA repair, a randomised study is required. The DREAM trial is a randomised multicenter trial enrolling patients eligible for elective treatment of infrarenal AAAs. The primary endpoint is combined operative mortality and morbidity. Secondary endpoints and additional assessments include event-free survival, quality of life,and costs.
