Prospectively collected data from fifty consecutive patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) treated at our institution with a Low Profile Zenith bifurcated body/Zenith Spiral-Z legs combo were analysed.
The authors concluded: EVAR performed with the Zenith LP main body in combination with Spiral-Z Iliac Legs is safe and effective. No limb occlusions were diagnosed at the 6 month follow up even in challenging iliac anatomies usually considered as contra indications for EVAR.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the anatomic suitability for endovascular abdominal aneurysm repair (EVAR) according to instructions for use (IFUs) of three commercially available bifurcated stent graft devices and explore the possible benefits of low-profile delivery systems. Computed tomography scans of 241 patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) were evaluated for suitability of Zenith Flex, Gore Excluder and Endurant bifurcated stent graft systems according to their IFUs.
