Abstract
Aim: It was aimed to determine the prognosis and treatment in relation to the risk factors of the patient group by recording the changes in aneurysm sac, thrombus diameter and thrombus load in the follow-up of patients treated with endovascular stent-graft for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA).
Material and Methods: Preoperative and postoperative 1st, 3rd, 6th and 12th month CT-A's of 112 patients who were followed up regularly were performed and changes in aneurysm sac diameter, thrombus diameter and thrombus percentage were recorded.
Results: When the measurements were evaluated, an increase was detected in the mean thrombus diameter at post-operative month 1 with a gradual reduction over time; however, it was observed to be higher than the pre-operative values even at month 12. These changes were statistically significant (p
