Adherence to instruction for use after endovascular repair of popliteal artery aneurysm

CONCLUSION: The majority of patients undergoing ER for PAA were not treated within IFU. Diameter size difference >1 mm between overlapping stent grafts was associated with a higher loss of primary patency at one year. Multi-center studies with larger sample size and long-term follow up of patency are warranted.PMID:33874806 | DOI:10.1177/17085381211007312
