Sac shrinkage after EVAR: a true marker of success or a misleading signal? with K. Mani
Rosalinda D’Amico interviews Prof. Kevin Mani on one of the key controversies in EVAR follow-up: is aneurysm sac shrinkage truly a marker of success, or can it sometimes provide false reassurance? They discuss the current definition of sac regression, the importance of timing and sac stability and whether sac shrinkage should influence surveillance strategies. The episode also explores the role of CTA versus duplex ultrasound and the future potential of volumetric and AI-based assessment in EVAR surveillance
