Angiolutions
stops
aortic aneurysms.
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a local “ballooning” of the aorta – the biggest blood vessel in the human body.
AAA is a frequent disease, affecting up to 5% of the population.
AAAs are progressive in nature – that means, AAAs become larger over time and may eventually rupture.
AAA rupture is lethal
in most cases.
To date, there is no treatment to stop AAA progression.

Technology
A new understanding of AAA growth mechanisms
What causes aneurysms to grow?
Pulse waves are generated with every heartbeat and run down the aorta
Pulse waves hit the susceptible AAA and mechanically drive AAA growth
And how can we stop the growth?
Angiolutions device absorbs aortic pulse waves and mechanically shields the AAA
AAA is protected from aortic pulse waves and stops growingÂ
Angiolutions: first device to stop AAA progression
