Uncert ainty exists about how endovascular repair compares with conventional open surge ry. EVAR trial 1 was instigated to compare these treatments in patients judged f it for open AAA repair. Methods Between 1999 and 2003, 1082 elective (non emerg ency) patients were randomised to receive either EVAR (n=543) or open AAA repair (n=539). Patients aged at least 60 years with aneurysms of diameter 5.5 cm or m ore, who were fit enough for open surgical repair (anaesthetically and medically well enough for the procedure), were recruited for the study at 41 British hosp itals proficient in the EVAR technique. The primary outcome measure is all cause mortality and these results will be rele ased in 2005. The primary analysis presented here is operative mortality by inte ntion to treat and a secondary analysis was done in per protocol patients. Find ings Patients (983 men, 99 women) had a mean age of 74 years (SD 6) and mean AAA diameter of 6.5 cm (SD 1). 1047 (97%) patients underwent AAA repair and 1008 ( 93%) received their allocated treatment. 30-day mortality in the EVAR group wa s 1.7%(9/531)versus 4.7%(24/516) in the open repair group (odds ratio 0.35<<95 %CI 0.16-0.77>>, p=0.009). By per protocol analysis, 30-day mortality for EVA R was 1.6%(8/512) versus 4.6%(23/496) for open repair (0.33 <<0.15-0.74>>, p=0. 007). Secondary interventions were more common in patients allocated EVAR (9.8% vs 5.8%, p=0.02). Interpretation In patients with large AAAs, treatment by EVAR reduced the 30-day operative mortality by two thirds compared with open repai r. Any change in clinical practice should await durability and longer term resul ts.展开更多

Materials and Methods: This single-center, retrospective study included 25 patients who underwent EVAR for abdominal aortic aneurysm at our institution. A 1-mm horizontal cross-sectional slice of NCT and CECT from each patient was retrospectively reviewed. The area from the abdominal aorta to the common iliac artery was divided into four zones. A centerline was created using the NCT by manually plotting the center points. Subsequently, the centerlines were automatically extracted and manually corrected during the arterial phase of CECT. The diameter and length of each zone were measured for each modality. The mean diameters and lengths of the target vessels were compared between NCT and CECT. Results: The measurements obtained using both methods were reproducible and demonstrated good agreement. The mean differences in vessel length and diameter measurements for each segment between NCT and CECT were not statistically significant, indicating good consistency. Conclusion: NCT may be useful for preoperative EVAR evaluation in patients with renal dysfunction or allergies to contrast agents.展开更多
