In the original UK Small Aneurysm Trial, 53% of patients with aneurysm 4.5 cm to 4.9 cm at the time of randomization underwent surgical repair within the mean 4.9 years of follow-up, while 81% of those with AAA 5.0 cm to 5.4 cm in diameter came to surgery before conclusion of the ...
Baseline mean stent-graft oversizing was 1.7 mm, which decreased to -0.31 mm at latest follow-up. Dilation of the neck did not significantly exceed the endograft diameter in 83 cases (87.36%). An enlargement of the infrarenal aneurysm neck occurred during the first 6 months after EVAR. ...
There was no reduction in the incidence of aneurysm rupture after either 5 or 10 years of follow-up. Given the previous low prevalence of aneurysms detected in women, this trial may not have had sufficient power to detect any benefit from screening. However smoking, the principal risk factor ...
To evaluate survivors treated for acute extremity ischaemia as a risk-group for carotid stenosis and abdominal aortic aneurysm at the follow-up examination.Experimental design: Clinical study with median follow-up of 14 (8-32) months.

Most excluded aneurysm sacs have thrombosis without any long- or short-term complications; however, in a small number of patients delayed rupture of patent aneurysm occurs, thus emphasizing the need for diligent follow-up and appropriate intervention. 展开 ...
Follow-up CT imaging 5 years after open repair management is recommended to exclude late aortic dilation or pseudoaneurysm. Consultations Once an abdominal aortic aneurysm is diagnosed, the patient should be referred to a vascular surgeon. Surveillance imaging at 12-month intervals is recommended for ...
BACKGROUND: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a leading cause of death in the USA. We evaluated the incidence and predictors of AAA in a prospectively followed cohort. METHODS: We calculated age-adjusted AAA incidence rates (IR) among 18782 participants aged 65years in the Southern Community ...
