24 Conclusions: Powerlink System appears safe and effective in protecting patients from AAA rupture Powerlink System appears safe and effective in protecting patients from AAA rupture All cohorts treated w/ Powerlink ® experienced: All cohorts treated w/ Powerlink ® experienced: Aneurysm sac diameter & volume reduction Aneurysm sac diameter & volume reduction Remodeling or shrinking of aneurysm sac around device as evidenced by straightening of the aorta Remodeling or shrinking of aneurysm sac around device as evidenced by straightening of the aorta Minimal change in length of aorta from distal renal to bifurcation regardless of sac angle change Minimal change in length of aorta from distal renal to bifurcation regardless of sac angle change Sac remodeling does not appear to contribute to graft migration with the Powerlink stent graft The column strength and long main body of the Powerlink ® may directly influence the classical remodeling of the aneurismal aorta The column strength and long main body of the Powerlink ® may directly influence the classical remodeling of the aneurismal aorta
