Impact of endovascular thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair on the development of sarcopenia
During the first year after f/bEVAR for TAAA, a significant loss of psoas and erector spinae muscle was detected after extensive aortic coverage. Individualized treatment planning with staged procedures and continued evaluation of sarcopenia status, including focused prevention and treatment of sarcopenia, could help to optimize outcomes. Further studies are needed to define the role of sarcopenia as a reliable stratification tool for mortality and major adverse events after f/bEVAR.
