Anatomical characteristics are associated with aneurysm sac regression after endovascular repair
Anatomical AAA characteristics relating to ILT play an important role in sac regression after EVAR. Furthermore, this study supports the existing evidence confirming that various mostly geometric neck parameters are not associated with sac regression, such as diameter, calcification, length, angulation, shape, and presence of a hostile neck. Although the anatomical analysis is of added value for predicting sac regression, further improvement is needed before clinical implementation.
