MORPHOLOGIC CHANGES AND CLINICAL CONSEQUENCES OF WIDE AAA NECKS TREATED WITH 34...
Oliveira-Pinto, José; Ferreira, Rita Soares; Oliveira, Nélson F. G.; Gonçalves, Frederico Bastos; Hoeks, Sanne; Van Rijn, Marie Josee; Ten Raa, SanderIntroduction: Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) became the preferred modality for infrarenal aneurysm (AAA) repair. Several available endografts have main body proximal diameters up to 36mm, allowing for treatment of proximal AAA necks up to 32 mm. However, large neck represents a predictor of proximal complications after EVAR. The purpose of this study is to evaluate mid-term outcomes of patients requiring 3...
ENDOVASCULAR ANEURYSM REPAIR IN WIDE INFRARENAL NECKS - INCREASED RISK OF COMPL...
Oliveira, Nelson F. G.; de Vries, Jean-Paul P. M.; Van Rijn, Marie Josee; Hoeks, Sanne; Werson, Debbie; de Ruiter, Quirina; van Herwaarden, Joost A.EVAR has become the predominant repair technique for abdominal aortic aneurysm. Long-term clinical success relies greatly upon a long-lasting proximal seal. EVAR has achieved good outcomes on the short-term in patients with hostile neck features such as large proximal necks. However, the long-term outcomes in these patients is greatly unknown. In this article, the authors perform a literature review in order to...
