Popis: EVAR has become the predominant repair technique for abdominal aortic aneurysm. Long-term clinical success relies greatly upon a long-lasting proximal seal. EVAR has achieved good outcomes on the short-term in patients with hostile neck features such as large proximal necks. However, the long-term outcomes in these patients is greatly unknown. In this article, the authors perform a literature review in order to assess the clinical impact of wide proximal neck on mid to long-term outcomes following EVAR.
