Endovascular Treatment of Juxtarenal Aortic Aneurysms

Endovascular Treatment of Juxtarenal Aortic Aneurysms is organized by Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe (CIRSE) and will be held from May 28 - 29, 2026 at Semmelweis University Heart and Vascular Center, Budapest, Hungary.

Description:
Juxtarenal aortic aneurysms present unique anatomical and technical challenges for endovascular repair, requiring careful planning, device selection, and precise execution. Recent advances in imaging, device technology, and adjunctive techniques have expanded treatment possibilities, but they have also highlighted the importance of understanding anatomical variations, hostile neck configurations, and complex access issues.

Physicians participating in this year’s ESIR workshop will gain a rare opportunity to combine focused expert lectures with extensive hands-on experience using advanced EVAR planning tools, delivery systems, and high-fidelity simulators. Participants will practice basic EVAR and iliac branch device procedures, rupture management strategies, and the use of endoanchors in challenging scenarios.

Lectures will address the indications for intervention, device selection and IFU adherence, technical tips and tricks, and strategies for managing inadequate landing zones or poor femoral/iliac access. Experts will present real-world cases and demonstrate how to approach complex anatomy, optimize procedural planning, and avoid common pitfalls.

Hands-on sessions will be delivered in small groups, enabling delegates to refine wire and catheter skills, explore device deployment in challenging anatomies, and rehearse emergency responses to intra-procedural complications. The course will also include case-based discussions on risk management and bailout techniques, encouraging interactive problem-solving with faculty input.

By the end of the workshop, participants will have an enhanced understanding of the full spectrum of endovascular options for juxtarenal aortic aneurysm repair, and will be equipped with practical skills and strategies to apply in their own clinical practice.
