Abdominal Aortic Surgery | Ron Rolett’s Story
Patient Story

Abdominal Aortic Surgery | Ron Rolett’s Story

Ronald Rolett, a retired physician from North Carolina, learned that he had an abdominal aortic aneurysm from a routine ultrasound screening. Rolett became the first patient at The Johns Hopkins Hospital—and at any hospital in the mid-Atlantic region—to have an aneurysm repaired in a minimally invasive way using a graft that was made to fit his specific anatomy. He tells his story about the procedure, recovery and experience with Johns Hopkins Vascular Surgery.
