Inclusion Criteria
Patients with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms who have undergone endovascular aneurysm repair( EVAR) at Dunedin Public Hospital, as identified through unit audit databases and hospital coding data.
Exclusion Criteria
Patients who have not undergone EVAR at Dunedin Public Hospital, and who have not had a 6 month follow-up CT scan.
Study & Design

- Observational
- Study Design
- Not specified
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To determine the association between endoleaks following endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair and suprarenal aortic calibres. The occurrence of endoleaks will be determined by a review of the patient's medical records, and the suprarenal aortic calibres will be assessed by CT scan.[After the 6 month follow-up for endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Our first secondary objective is to determine whether there is an association between aortic calibres and re-intervention after endovascular aneurysm repair as determined by the patient's medical record.[After the 6 month follow- up post EVAR.];Our second secondary objective is to determine whether there is an association between aortic calibres and aneurysm related mortality as assessed by patient medical records.[After the 6 month follow up post EVAR.];Our third secondary objective is to determine whether there is an association between aortic calibres and all cause mortality, as assessed by patient medical records.[After the 6 month follow up post EVAR];Our fourth secondary objective is to determine whether there is an association between aortic calibres and aneurysmal sac growth as determined by patient medical records.[After the 6 month follow up post EVAR.]
