SSSimona SICA MDMario D’ORIA MBMarco BERNARDI

Key Points

To examine the relationship between aneurysm sac regression after endovascular aneurysm repair and clinical outcomes.
Conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of existing studies
Evaluated incidence and prognostic implications of sac regression
Assessed the consistency of definitions used across studies
Recommended prospective studies and randomized trials for further investigation
Aneurysm sac regression correlates with reduced mortality rates
Improved clinical outcomes and lower complication rates associated with sac regression
Standardized assessment definitions are necessary for more reliable findings

Abstract

Aneurysm sac regression is a valuable prognostic marker after EVAR. It is associated with better clinical outcomes, including reduced mortality and complications. Standardizing the definition and assessment of sac regression is essential for more consistent findings. Further prospective studies and randomized trials are needed to confirm these results and better understand the mechanisms behind sac regression.
