Outcomes after open surgery and endovascular aneurysm repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm in patients with massive neck atheroma.

Abstract

Compared to OS patients, EVAR patients with massive neck atheroma tend to develop late-phase complications possibly related to cholesterol crystal embolisation.

The clinical features of massive neck atheroma patients receiving EVAR should be carefully monitored even after hospital discharge.
