Fenestrated Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms with a Large Diameter Graft Does Not Impact Postoperative Outcomes

Recent data suggests that infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) endovascular repair (EVAR) with large diameter grafts may have a higher risk of endoleak and reintervention. However, this has not been studied for fenestrated EVAR (FEVAR). We therefore sought to evaluate the outcomes of patients undergoing FEVAR with large-diameter endografts.
