Incidence and Risk Factors for Sac Expansion after Endovascular Aneurysm Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Purpose: This study aimed to examine the sac changes after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. <br />Materials and Methods : : We examined the aneurysm sac size initially and regularly after surgery in 157 consecutive patients who underwent EVAR in...
