1 Impact on outcomes by measuring tortuosity with reporting standards for thoracic endovascular aortic repair  Chun-Ku Chen, MD, I-Ping Liang, MD, Hsiao-Ting Chang, MD, MS, Wei-Yuan Chen, MD, MS, I-Ming Chen, MD, Mei-Han Wu, MD, Ming-Huei Sheu, MD, Chun-Che Shih, MD, PhD  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 60, Issue 4, Pages (October 2014) DOI: /j.jvs Copyright © 2014 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Tortuosity and diameter measurement. A, The curved length of the aneurysm was measured along the central lumen line by extending 2.5 cm from the landing zone proximally and distally from the proximal and distal neck. B, The straight distance of the aneurysm was then measured from the proximal landing zone to the distal landing zone. The tortuosity is calculated by dividing the curved length by the straight distance. C, The maximal aneurysm diameter was measured perpendicular to the central luminal line.

5 Fig 4 Survival rates of patients with thoracic atherosclerotic aneurysms after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) were 92%, 92%, and 86% at 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively, for the low-tortuosity group and 73%, 63%, and 63% at 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively, for the high-tortuosity group.
