Aneurysm shrinkage is an expected outcome after stent-grafting for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). A worrying problem following repair is progressive enlargement indicating persistent sac pressurization: in this setting not all grafts are equal. The Cook Zenith device (CZ) became available on the European market in 1999. While multicenter studies on the device have shown favorable clinical results at mid-term follow-up, few have focused on sac behavior. This study evaluated AAA sac behavior and predictive factors of its evolution by assessing the five-year results obtained with the CZ graft in a single-institution experience.
