Reporting standards for studies involving endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms were introduced by the Society for Vascular Surgery in 1997 and revised in 2002. 1-3 Although the 2002 standards addressed endovascular aortic aneurysm repair in a more general sense, they did not focus on thoracic endografts. With the development of endovascular grafts to treat thoracic aortic pathology, there is a need for reporting standards specific to this procedure. Many of concepts and definitions of success are extrapolated from the prior publications regarding standards for endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). Nonetheless, thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) incorporates some unique aspects, ranging from specific anatomic issues to the differing etiologies of diseases affecting the thoracic aorta, such as dissection, traumatic injury, penetrating ulcer, and pseudoaneurysm. The framework for TEVAR reporting will be addressed in this article. The reporting standards for aortic dissection are particularly complex and will be addressed in more detail in a separate publication.
