This is a retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients submitted to elective EVAR, between February/2009 and May/2019 in a single institution. Symptomatic or ruptured AAA, mycotic aneurysms, isolated iliac aneurysms and complex abdominal aortic repairs were excluded. The primary outcomes were freedom from secondary intervention and compliance with follow-up, defined as surveillance imaging performed within a periodicity no longer than 18 months.
