Analysis of Effects of Fixation Type on Renal Function After Endovascular Aneurysm Repair

Purpose To report a prospective nonrandomized study comparing the effects of suprarenal (SR) vs. infrarenal (IR) stent-graft fixation on renal function in patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Methods Patients with AAA undergoing elective EVAR b...

Zusammenfassung:Purpose To report a prospective nonrandomized study comparing the effects of suprarenal (SR) vs. infrarenal (IR) stent-graft fixation on renal function in patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Methods Patients with AAA undergoing elective EVAR between June 2008 and June 2010 were eligible for the comparative study of fixation method on renal function. Patients with impaired renal function [estimated creatinine clearance (eCrCl)
