“…CT is the most widely accepted imaging modality for the long-term follow-up of EVAR to detect possible complications such as endoleaks [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. The dimensional evolution of the aneurysmal sac is the primary prognostic factor in these patients: a stable or shrinking aneurysm is associated with a low risk of rupture, even if associated with a small type II endoleak.…”

“…La TC è la metodica più comunemente utilizzata per il follow-up a lungo termine dei pazienti sottoposti ad EVAR che necessitano di una continua sorveglianza per identificare eventuali complicanze post-procedurali, come gli endoleak [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. L'evoluzione dimensionale della sacca aneurismatica rappresenta il principale fattore prognostico nei pazienti sottoposti a EVAR: alla riduzione o stabilità delle dimensioni della sacca si associa un basso rischio di rottura, anche in presenza di piccoli endoleak di tipo II, che non richiedono perciò alcun trattamento.…”

“…In the study by Tomlinson et al, 15 secondary interventions within the first year were required in 13% of patients undergoing EVAR and were needed in only 3% of such grafts after the first year.…”
