What are the risks and recovery expectations?
Risks include endoleak, stent migration, stroke, paraplegia (rare), and access site complications. Recovery involves a 7-10 day hospital stay, followed by 4-6 weeks of limited activity—no heavy lifting or driving. Most patients resume normal daily activities within two months, with lifelong imaging follow-up to monitor the stent-graft and aortic remodeling.
