Abstract
EVAR with bifurcated stent grafts is safe and effective in patients with a narrow distal aortic diameter, even when the aortic bifurcation measures <14 mm. Adjunctive balloon dilatation did not result in any bleeding complications from aortic disruption, and limb patency was excellent. Aortouniiliac converters are rarely needed for this indication.
