Purpose: To compare different anatomical characteristics between intact and ruptured large
abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAA> 80 mm) with the goal of refining the process of …

Purpose: To investigate how 2-dimensional geometric parameters differ between ruptured
and asymptomatic abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) and provide a biomechanical …

Background: There are no precise estimates of the rate of rupture of large abdominal aortic
aneurysms (AAA). There is recent suspicion that anatomic suitability for endovascular repair …

Background Saccular abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are considered to be at higher
risk of rupture than fusiform AAAs, but not much is known about the extent of this risk …

Objectives: it has been suspected that the position at which aneurysm rupture occurs would
affect outcome. The aim of this prospective study was to relate the morphology of the …

Objective The risk of aortic abdominal aneurysm (AAA) rupture increases with an increasing
aneurysm diameter. However, the effect of the AAA diameter on late outcomes after …

Recent reports have documented poor long-term results following endovascular aneurysm
repair (EVAR) of large abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). EVAR of small AAAs may result …

Objective/background Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for ruptured abdominal aortic
aneurysm (rAAA) has faced resistance owing to the marginal evidence of benefit over open …

Aims To investigate whether aneurysm shape and extent, which indicate whether a patient
with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) is eligible for endovascular repair (EVAR) …

Objectives: to determine the risk of rupture in patients with large non-operated abdominal
aortic aneurysms (AAAs). Methods: in 128 patients admitted over a 5-year period with an …
