Prediction of advanced endovascular stent graft rotation and its associated morbidity and mortality.

Mark Wheatcroft, Ryan M Sanford, Matthew G Doyle, Thomas L Forbes, Cristina H Amon, Sean A Crawford
Advanced endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with fenestrated and branched stent grafts is increasingly being used to repair complex aortic aneurysms; however, these devices can rotate unpredictably during deployment, leading to device misalignment. The objectives of this study were to quantify the short-term clinical outcomes in patients with intraoperative stent graft rotation and to identify quantitative anatomic markers of the arterial geometry that can predict stent graft rotation preoperatively.
