The effect of anatomical factors on mortality rates after endovascular aneurysm repair.
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of anatomical characteristics on mortality rates after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). METHODS We investigated 56 EVAR procedures for infrarenal aortic aneurysms performed between January 2010 and December 2013, and the data were supplemented with a prospective review. The patients were divided into two groups according ...
متن کاملLate mortality in females after endovascular aneurysm repair.
BACKGROUND Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture is an adverse arterial remodeling event with high mortality risk. Because females have increased rupture risk with smaller AAAs (<5.5 cm), many recommend elective repair before the AAA reaches 5.5 cm. Elective repair improves survival for large AAAs, but long-term benefits of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for small AAAs in females remain ...
متن کاملMortality and morbidity rates after conventional abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
AIM To grade and analyse by levels of evidence the mortality and morbidity rates of elective abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) surgery as reported over the past 12 years. METHODS Articles on elective AAA surgery published between 1985 and 1996 were retrieved and classified into 5 levels of evidence. Level 1 contains prospective studies and is subdivided into population-based (Level 1a) and hosp...
متن کاملUnexplained rupture after endovascular aneurysm repair
We present a case of a 70-year-old man who was admitted with rupture of an abdominal aneurysm 4 years after endovascular aneurysm repair. He was compliant with yearly follow-up computed tomography angiography. One month earlier, his computed tomography angiogram showed perfect exclusion of the aneurysm and no endoleak. We explanted the stent graft and confirmed effective sealing, and the graft ...
متن کاملLate aneurysm rupture after endovascular abdominal aneurysm repair.
OBJECTIVES The goal of endovascular repair is to protect the patient from aneurysm rupture. Careful surveillance should be performed postoperatively in order to select patients with aneurysm growth and, therefore, the highest rupture risk. The aim of the study was to present our experience with aneurysm rupture in long-term follow-up after endovascular abdominal aneurysm repair. METHODS Betwe...
