Abstract
In this study, immediate outcomes following EVAR were different between men and women, with women having increased rates of postoperative complications. Mortality and overall long-term durability of EVAR, however, were the same between sexes despite anatomical differences. EVAR durability was significantly dependent on the severity of iliac tortuosity, aortic neck angulation, and presence of endoleak at the follow-up.
