Importance of AAA size as a predictor of complications after EVAR
Oliveira-Pinto,José; Soares-Ferreira,Rita; Oliveira,Nelson; Sousa,Joel; Bastos-Gonçalves,Frederico; Leite-Moreira,Adelino; Mansilha,ArmandoIntroduction: EVAR represents the preferred modality for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) repair. However, a comprehension regarding its limits is paramount to avoid future complications. AAA sac diameter has been described as a relevant risk factor for late complications. The purpose of this study is to summarize relevant findings regarding the association between AAA diameter and AAA-related complications. Me...
Morphologic changes and clinical consequences of wide AAA necks treated with 34...
Oliveira-Pinto,José; Soares-Ferreira,Rita; Oliveira,Nelson F. G.; Gonçalves,Frederico Bastos; Hoeks,Sanne; Rijn,Marie Josee Van; Raa,Sander TenIntroduction: 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...
Standard EVAR in large necks - is it a reasonable solution?
Oliveira-Pinto,José; Soares-Ferreira,Rita; Oliveira,Nelson; Sousa,Joel; Bastos-Gonçalves,Frederico; Leite-Moreira,Adelino; Mansilha,ArmandoIntroduction: Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has expanded into progressively more challenging anatomies. Proximal neck-morphology represents the major determinant of EVAR durability. Neck-diameter constitutes one of the most important anatomical neck features and influence proximal sealing over time. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of wide proximal necks on outcome after standard ...
