1 AneuRx stent graft versus open surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms: Multicenter prospective clinical trial  Christopher K. Zarins, MD, Rodney A. White, MD, Donald Schwarten, MD, Edward Kinney, MD, Edward B. Diethrich, MD, Kim J. Hodgson, MD, Thomas J. Fogarty, MD, for the investigators of the Medtronic AneuRx Multicenter Clinical Trial  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 29, Issue 2, Pages (February 1999) DOI: /S (99) Copyright © 1999 Society for Vascular Surgery and International Society for Cardiovascular Surgery, North American Chapter Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 Modular design of AneuRx stent graft system. Primary modular components are main bifurcated segment and contralateral iliac limb. Modular proximal (aortic) and distal (iliac) extender cuffs allow length adjustment.

3 Fig. 2 Cross-sectional images of contrast infused spiral computed tomographic scans of 67-year-old man with 7.3-cm abdominal aortic aneurysm. A, Preoperative computed tomographic scan shows 7.3-cm abdominal aortic aneurysm with little mural thrombus. B, One month after stent graft placement, aneurysm is fully excluded with no endoleak and no change in aneurysm size. C, After 6 months, aneurysm has decreased in size to 6.9 cm. D, After 1 year, aneurysm has decreased in size to 6.2 cm.

4 Fig. 3 Shaded surface of three-dimensional reconstruction of spiral computed tomographic scan showing: A, a 6.2-cm infrarenal aortic aneurysm in a 65-year-old man; and B, 1 year later, complete exclusion of aneurysm by stent graft. Aneurysm has decreased in size to 5.2 cm (not seen in this image).
