pubmed-article:21855026 | pubmed:abstractText | The outcomes for patients after endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are determined primarily by the endpoints of death and endoleaks, the latter representing continued risk of rupture. The data of a multicentre registry were analysed with regard to the early outcome of stent-graft procedures for AAA and the complications associated with this treatment. In addition, the results during follow-up were analysed by determining mortality and endoleak development as separate endpoints and as a combined endpoint defined as endoleak-free survival. | lld:pubmed |
