Abstract
Considering the literature, this report has 3 implications for the endovascular treatment of rAAA. First, 30% oversizing is preferable to 15% when treating an rAAA assessed by computed tomography angiography (CTA) performed during permissive hypotension. Second, the surveillance program should rely on CTA and not on a duplex examination to detect any endoleaks or migration. Finally, partial stent graft explantation is a valid option for decreasing aortic clamping time.
