Two-year-results of Endurant stent-graft in challenging aortic neck morphologies versus standard anatomies.

Conclusion: Treatment with the Endurant stent-graft is technically feasible and safe, yielding satisfactory results even in challenging anatomies. Mid-term results are promising and challenge current opinion concerning the negative influence of challenging neck anatomy on EVAR especially after a longer follow-up.
