How long is recovery after aaa surgery?

Depends: Traditional AAA surgery is being challenged by the less invasive endograft procedures. You need to see a vascular surgeon who is comfortable with both open and endovascular techniques to have your best options. Depends on what you decide to pursue your recovery can be anywhere from a few days to few weeks.

4 to 6 weeks: If the surgery is done without cutting the abdominal wall, recovery is much faster.

Very short: If endograft used. Can go home in 1-2 days.
