The adoption of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) during the past two decades has led to significantly shorter length of stay as well as lower hospital resource use. Currently, most patients are admitted to the hospital after EVAR; however, there are no standard observation periods, and timing of discharge is based on clinical judgment. The aim of this study was to confirm the safety and feasibility of performing EVAR as outpatient surgery.
