Résumé
Background/Objectives: Aneurysm sac expansion is an adverse marker of durability after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). We assessed factors associated with expansion, its prognostic significance, and the effect of preventive embolisation.
Methods
PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Scopus were searched through 23 August 2026 (PROSPERO CRD420261386132). Random-effects meta-analyses analysed odds ratios (ORs), hazard ratios (HRs), and risk ratios (RRs) separately; risk of bias and certainty were assessed with RoB 2, ROBINS-I, QUIPS, and GRADE.
