Transrenal versus Infrarenal Endograft Fixation: Influence on Type I Endoleaks

The purpose of this study was to compare the rate of proximal type I endoleaks in patients undergoing endoluminal repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms with endografts having either transrenal or infrarenal fixation. From September 1998 to May 2000,42 patients received endoluminal aortic g...

Zusammenfassung:	The purpose of this study was to compare the rate of proximal type I endoleaks in patients undergoing endoluminal repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms with endografts having either transrenal or infrarenal fixation. From September 1998 to May 2000,42 patients received endoluminal aortic grafts for the treatment of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms. Patients received either transrenal or infrarenal devices, based on the surgeon's preference. All patients had infrarenal aortic neck lengths measuring at least 1.5 cm and proximal neck angulation of
