As a primary endpoint, we will verify the device success at 30 days as defined by the VARC guidelines2 . Study patients will be followed-up annually to 10 years to assess the device safety and performance, together with the patient quality of life,” reported Dr. Giuseppe Santarpino , Principal Investigator at Città di Lecce Hospital, Italy.
