Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Male or infertile female
  • Have signed an informed consent form.
  • Are considered an appropriate candidate for open surgical repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm.
  • at least one of the following: Abdominal aortic aneurysm \>= 4.5 cm in diameter; aneurysm has increased in size by 0.5cm in last 6 months; maximum diameter of aneurysm exceeds 1.5 times the transverse dimension of an adjacent normal aortic segment; saccular aneurysm larger than 3 cm.
  • Have patent iliac or femoral arteries that allow endovascular access to the aneurysmal site with a 17F Delivery Catheter.

Exclusion

  • A dissecting, acutely ruptured, or leaking aneurysm, or an acute vascular injury due to trauma.
  • A need for emergent surgery.
  • contraindication to undergoing angiography.
  • A Thoracic aortic aneurysm that requires treatment.
  • Presence of thrombus or atheroma in proximal aortic neck covering \> 50% of the endoluminal surface.
  • Presence of diffuse atherosclerotic disease in either common iliac artery that reduces the iliac artery diameter to \<7mm.
  • Congenital abnormalities in which the placement of the stent-graft will cause occlusion of major arterial flow. Such abnormalities should be evaluated(e.g. angiography or CT) prior to treatment.
  • Unstable angina
  • Morbid obesity or other clinical conditions that severely inhibit x-ray visualization of the aorta.
  • Connective tissue disease (e.g., Marfan's or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.)
  • Hypercoagulable state.
  • Contraindication for anticoagulation.
  • Acute renal failure.
  • Active systemic infection.
  • less than 18 years of age.
  • Life expectancy less than 1 year.
  • Current, or anticipated participation within 1 year, in another research study involving an investigational device or new drug (with the exception of participation in the Lifeline Registry of Endovascular Therapy).
  • Other medical, social, or psychological issues that in the opinion of the investigator preclude them from receiving this treatment, and the procedures and evaluations pre- and post-treatment.
