Evaluation of the prognostic value of computed tomography‐derived body composition in patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair

Evaluation of the prognostic value of computed tomography‐derived body composition in patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair

Abstract Background Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is the most common mode of repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) in the UK. EVAR ranges from standard infrarenal repair to complex fenestrated and branched EVAR (F/B‐EVAR). Sarcopenia is defined by lower muscle mass and function, which is...
