Abstract

Spinal cord ischemia (SCI) after abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a rare but devastating complication. The mechanism underlying the occurrence of SCI after EVAR seems to be multifactorial and is underreported and not fully elucidated. The aim of the study was to investigate the clinical outcomes in patients with this serious complication.
