Local anesthesia yields comparable 30-day outcomes to general anesthesia for elective EVAR; hypothesis-generating and requires randomized confirmation before practice change.
Does general anesthesia compared to local anesthesia improve 30-day clinical outcomes in patients undergoing elective endovascular aortic aneurysm repair?
