Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Volumetric Evaluation During Mid-term Follow-Up After Endovascular Sealing Using the Nellix ™ Device

ConclusionSmall aneurysm volume enlargement detected during a mid-term follow-up was associated with thrombus size change, whereas systematic endograft expansion resulted independent from the aortic growth. Volumetric measurements using a semi-automated method could quantify small changes in aneurysm, endograft and thrombus sizes not detected by manually defined maximal diameters.
