title: [Endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Morphology of aneurysms as one of the deciding indicating factors].
abstract: Endovascular treatment of aneurysms of the abdominal aorta is based on intravascular bridging of the aneurysm using of an endovascular prosthesis. The prosthesis must be safely anchored above and below the sac of the aneurysm in the non-dilated artery. Therefore the indication of endovascular treatment depends on the morphology of the aneurysm. The objective of the work was to analyse the morphology of the aneurysm with regard to the possibility of endovascular treatment. The morphology of the aneurysm was evaluated with regard to the angiographic examination and examination by computed tomography. The following parameters were investigated: diameter and length of the proximal and distal neck, diameter of the sac in two planes, diameter and tortousity of the iliac arteries, tortousity of the infrarenal aorta. A total of 70 patients with aneurysms of the abdominal aorta were examined. The patients were divided into three groups according to the morphology of the aneurysm. I. infrarenal aneurysms not affecting common iliac artery (n = 20) 28.5%, II. infrarenal aneurysms affecting common iliac artery (n = 38) 54.2%, III. juxtarenal aneurysms regardless of the affection of common iliac arteries (n = 12) 17.1%. Of the total of 70 examined patients 24 (34.2%) with infrarenal aneurysm and 6 (8.57%) with juxtarenal aneurysm were suitable for endovascular treatment.
