Theorems
Age itself is not a reason to withhold fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair in the elderly and the choice of treatment should be weighed by the patient’s comorbidities and preferences. (This thesis) After fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair renal function deteriorates overtime and should be monitored, especially in those with an already borderline renal function. (This thesis)
The tortuosity index could be a reliable tool to predict target vessel patency in patients undergoing fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair, the tortuosity index could be a reliable tool to predict target vessel patency. (This thesis)
In cases with a complex abdominal aortic aneurysm treated with the Fenestrated Anaconda, a type Ia endoleak can be seen relatively frequent, but resolves spontaneously without clinical consequences in most cases. (This thesis)
In cases after failed open or endovascular treatment of a (complex) abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, complete relining may be the preferred treatment over the use of a fenestrated aortic cuff. (This thesis) A close follow-up, including computed tomography angiography measurements of target vessel stent angulation and length, should be performed to detect target vessel related complications after branched endovascular aneurysm repair of suprarenal and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms.
