1 Predictive factors and clinical consequences of proximal aortic neck dilatation in 230 patients undergoing abdominal aorta aneurysm repair with self-expandable stent- grafts1   Piergiorgio Cao, MD, Fabio Verzini, MD, Gianbattista Parlani, MD, Paola De Rango, MD, Basso Parente, MD, Giuseppe Giordano, MD, Stefano Mosca, MD, Agostino Maselli, MD  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 37, Issue 6, Pages (June 2003) DOI: /S (02)

2 Fig 1 CT scans obtained at 1 month (top) and 24 months (bottom) after endograft placement show aortic neck dilatation of 24.2 and 29.7 mm. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )

3 Fig 2 Probability of aortic neck dilatation. Number of patients at risk at different follow-up intervals is shown. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )

4 Fig 3 One-month axial CT scan (left) and 24-month axial CT scans with longitudinal reconstruction (right) show aortic neck dilatation associated with graft migration and type I proximal endoleak. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (02) )
