Four-year experience with the Endurant stent graft for abdominal aortic and common iliac artery aneurysms in 50 consecutive Japanese patients.

CONCLUSIONS: Four-year clinical outcomes of the Endurant stent graft remained positive in Japanese patients with AAA and CIAA, although 24% of the patients needed a secondary intervention. The aneurysm sac was stable in most of the patients, whereas the aneurysm sac reduction was small. These results suggest that careful imaging follow-up must be continued to determine the durability of the Endurant stent graft in patients with small aneurysm sac reduction.
